I guess I was thinking that cleaned_data is a dictionary sent to the
ORM for commit?

Now, what is confusing is why saving the 'form' instance to another
(in this case 'f') instance without a commit and adding the values to
the new instance makes a difference.  Isn't 'f' just a copy of 'form'?

Any clarification?

Thanks,
Tim
