I haven't looked at the code, but I can't imagine that it's that tough. 
A few lines of code, perhaps?

Again, I haven't looked at the widgets, yet, but my assumption was that 
the widgets (in order to be suitably generic) would have constructors 
for odd behavior like this. For example:

   CheckboxWidget ( int offVal, int onVal)

and that the default constructor would just look like:

   CheckboxWidget() {
      this( 0, 1 );
   }

If the widgets do *not* have this kind of flexibility, I can go add it 
to them. I'm almost done with my overhaul of DevicesConfig and the 
transformation of the device selection dialog to use a JTree.
