                 URL: http://jira.magnolia-cms.com/browse/MGNLFORM-117
             Project: Magnolia Form Module
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 1.3.1
            Reporter: Will Scheidegger
            Assignee: Tobias Mattsson


Since it apparently is "best practice" to use the form module to for all kinds 
of user interaction one should be able to pre-fill form fields when displaying 
the form. A perfect example to illustrate this need is the stkPURUpdateForm 
paragraph which allows the user to update info about his/her user account. The 
form however is displayed empty. One can create a custom form engine and a form 
step state which sets the values in the fields, but you cannot add this 
manually created form state to the form engine (no setter method and private 
formState attribute). So either a setter method should be provided or then we 
should have an additional "formValuesInit" method which takes a hash with the 
values and does the rest.
