Description
Steps to reproduce
1.Have a got a existing table with existing columns and rows.
2.Add a column with a default value (in my case a column called "counter" with default value 1, 0 decimals, min and max = 1)
3.The value is shown in every row but is not accessible when exporting to csv / analytics app.
Expected behavior
If a column has got a default value, which is also shown visually, the value must be exported at any time.
Actual behavior
The default value is shown visually in every existing row. But if you export the data to csv or Analytics app (in next cloud), the value only is shown in rows which were added after the column has been added.

Research direction
Reproduce the issue with an existing table, add a column with a default value, and compare the displayed rows with CSV and Analytics app exports. Trace the export paths for existing versus newly added rows; done means the default value is included for every existing row in both export destinations.
