It would be nice to have a convenient way to show an InputDialog with a default value already entered.

This could be done with either of the following method signatures:
JOptionPane.showInputDialog(Object message, Object default)
JOptionPane.showInputDialog(Object message, String default)


Example usage:

     String name = getLastNameUsed();
     name = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter name", name);


The default value should be selected when the dialog is shown, so that the user can type a new value to replace the default value without having to use the delete or backspace key to delete the default value first.
