If you want to pre-populate the form data, you just need to be able to
set new_data to hold the data from the object being changed, for when
you create a FormWrapper.
The documentation examples just do this by setting
new_data=original.__dict__, to put all of the object's fields into
new_data.
The general flow for the view is just:
manipulator = CustomChangeManipulator(object_key)
original = manipulator.original
if request.POST:
# code here exactly like for AddManipulator
else:
errors = {}
new_data = original.__dict__
# generate and present form just like AddManipulator
