The subject pretty much says it all. If you create a form with an initial
value for a disabled field, it displays fine as long as the form is
unbound. If a user submits the form, and it fails validation, the rendered
bound form will be missing the initial values for the disabled fields.
I would expect the disabled fields to always display the contents from the
form's "initial" dict, whether bound or unbound. The user is unable to
submit values for that field, and even if he/she tampered with the DOM and
managed to push something through, _clean_fields still loads the initial
value and then assigns it to cleaned_data. So the handling is correct, but
that value never ends up in the rendered field. 'initial' is the only
possible source for that field, so it seems it should display all the
time.
I attached a test file that illustrates the issue.
