Allow 0 quantity value in wishlist

[bzzero]

I would like to change default wishlist behaviour in Magento CE 1.9. By default item is removed from wishlist if quantity value set to 0. I would like to keep it in the wishlist. I would also like that when items are added to wishlist, default quantity is 0 not 1. Is this possible, any ideas?

Could you provide a little more reasoning as to "why" you want it to work this way?  Maybe we can come up with a solution that gets you what you want.
