Opps. As i was saying . . .  Often I have pre determined values for
form inputs in the parameters hash for some of the display columns.  
Like when creating a Computer Repair,  it has a computer_id,
customer_id, and service_id as prerequisites. These are all has_a rels
and often predetermined.

Almost invariably I want the value of that parameter to be the initial
value of the input.  It would be neat  if  Maypole::Form could do
this.  This could possibly simplify things when there are errors on
forms also.  The inputs would automatically get their previous values
in them.

I think I like it and it could work.  It is something to think about
anyway when developing the Form api.
