There is no "right" value, and no "wrong" one either except for <0,0,0> 
- any non-zero vector will usually do. I often use "y", but you can just 
as well use "x", "z", "<1,1,1>", "<42,23,4711>", 
"<sqrt(13),log(77),sin(0.2)>" or... well, maybe you get the idea.

The only situation when the actual value of this vector may make a 
difference is when you get artifacts - in that case choosing some other 
value may help.
