I'd like to see routines such as StrToBoolDef, StrToIntDef and other
related type conversion routines with defaults in Lazarus...

Thank you, by the way, for volunteering your time and effort to making
Lazarus better. If it weren't for the Interface, I'd switch completely
from Turbo Delphi =)

You could add this as a feature request in the bugtracker. To save
devellopers time, supply a complete list of functions you want to have
added.

At least StrToIntDef  is already in the fpc sysutils unit.

StrToIntDef ist there. StrToBool raises an exception when input is
neither "true" nor "false".
see "sysstr.inc"
