On a similar note, yesterday, to facilitate displaying certain fields depending on the users security roles, I injected the security.context into the constructor of the form in the DIC (best practice??). But overloading the constructor was a little cumbersome, and I would rather have set the `security.context` via. a method call.
It crossed my mind that life might be made a little easier by having an "init()" method to call after having called any post-constructor setters. But I can see the argument for not having this.
