Description:
------------
When you use a 'select' element with multiple choice and a default value, this default value is setted when you select nothing and browse the pages of the form and come back.

I think common sense tells us that when we come back to the page that has the select list nothing must be selected for us.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

require_once 'HTML/QuickForm/Controller.php';

session_start();

class Page1 extends HTML_QuickForm_Page{
function buildForm(){
$this->_formBuilt = true;
$this->addElement('text','tstText','Does not matter');
$this->addElement('submit',$this->getButtonName('next'), 'next >>');
}
}

class Page2 extends HTML_QuickForm_Page{
function buildForm(){
$this->_formBuilt = true;
$sel =& HTML_QuickForm::createElement('select','tstSel','Please select:',array('One','Two','Three'));
$sel->setMultiple(true);
$sel->setSize(3);
$this->addElement($sel);
$this->addElement('submit',$this->getButtonName('back'), '<< Back');
$this->addElement('submit',$this->getButtonName('next'), 'Finish');
$this->setDefaults(array('tstSel'=>array(0)));
}
}

$cont =& new HTML_QuickForm_Controller('myForm');
$cont->addPage(new Page1('pageone'));
$cont->addPage(new Page2('pagetwo'));
$cont->run();

?>

Expected result:
----------------
If I de-select the default value in the first time page two appear "blanking" the selections, I expect that when I come back to this page nothing is selected.

Actual result:
--------------
When I come back, the default value is selected.
