{{form.element('input', _name='field')['_value'] = "new_value"}} is 
executed on the server immediately after the controller function returns, 
so there should be no reason that line could not be moved to the 
controller. It doesn't write anything to the view -- it simply manipulates 
the form object before it is written to the view, which can be done just as 
easily in the controller.
