My typical usage is:
Code:
local save = ZO_SavedVars:NewAccountWide(savedvar, sv_version, nil, defaults)
LibSFUtils.defaultMissing(savedvar, defaults) -- adds in new variables in old savevars

Ist't the standard defaults of ZO_SavedVars doing the same?
I mean if I just add an entry to a default table which is used in my SavedVars already it will be added if it did not exist (was nil in the disk file) before upon login/reloadui.
Did test this today (PTS), works fine without any manual effort or funcitons to check and do code, but I'm pretty sure it always worked that way.
