I am looking for a way to put fields in a form widget that are not

The service the form widget targets to should receive the fields in

To do this you would have to write a custom event using Java or simple-
method or a scripting language, have it build the Map to pass to the
service, and then call the service.
The main constraint is that HTTP only takes a flat map of parameters
(name/value pairs, all Strings). The ServiceEventHandler will map
types, but there is no way to tell it to put certain field into a Map
that would be passed to the service as a field (if that's what you're
looking for). They all go into a Map, but that Map is the context of
the service itself, or all fields in that Map will be put into the
context at the very least.
