Description
On creating a new file reference (e.g. inside a tt_content element with images), the file reference properties "title", "description" and "alternative" are set to an empty string which results in overriding the meta data of the original file per default. The solution is to allow NULL as default value, which is currently casted to string if being creating as new IRRE child record.

Hi Olly!
I'm not sure if I read this correctly, but I disagree. Currently the meta data are empty yes, but they do not override since the override checkbox is not enabled by default.

That's right... I experienced that in a TYPO3 6.1 project where there related issue #54412 has not been back-ported to.
Since the default value could only be a string up to TYPO3 6.2, there's unfortunately no way to back-port it.
A cherry-pick for TYPO3 6.1 can be found here however:
