If you read the create domain sql command documentation carefully the
default clause is only used when inserting into a table that has a column
of the domain type that is not explicitly provided a value. Each
language deals with domains differently and the behavior you expect is not
currently implemented in pl/pgsql. If you want a default inside the
procedure you need to declare one explicitly.
