Changes in initial value behaviour between forms 4.5 and 5.0

Does anyone know of any change in behaviour of the "initial value" property of items in forms (was default value I believe)?

We have a number of forms which default a primary key sequence into the item value at insert time using the :sequence.seq.nextval notation in the default value property. When upgrading to 5.0, these items appear to be null when inserting, thus getting a ORA-1400 error.

We have got around the problem by using PRE-INSERT triggers to populate the values (which I actually prefer), but was just wondering if anyone had come across this problem?
