Maruan Sahyoun commented on PDFBOX-4256:
----------------------------------------

If we agree that the PDModel is moving towards an "application" logic -> yes. Currently the PDModel is an abstraction of the underlying low level PDF objects. If we implement that there is no PDModel way to get that there is no value set.

> The /V entry is missing for the radio and checkbox fields in the attached file. getValue() returns nothing. A look at the widget shows that /AS is set. Shouldn't this be used as fallback? The value is the one that isn't COSName.Off.
> For the attached file, I looked at the radiobutton "Marital Status" and the checkbox "AS".
