Here's what i'm trying to do. I've got a module that allows us to add
new items and edit new items to the database. I was going to use a
url slug which has to be unique anyway, but that will not work for
this application. As a result i'm allowing users to enter a url path
(ie /whatever/this/page/is/) and it's being served up fine through a
middleware class I wrote to substitute for flatpges (it does more than
standard flatpages). In my form above I'm trying to find a way to
check and see on form submission if the url has been changed to
another URL which is in the database already and not for the current
record. That part I can handle. I think the key to this is getting
request.path into my form field subclass above so that I can get the
record id which is passed through the url.
