Thanks Mat, formBackingObject() seems to be the way to go. Do you see
any problem using the Jakarta-Commons DB connection pool to obtain the
data from the DB? Or is there a better approach to this?

You could do this in your DAO where you originally fetch everything.  Also,
there's logic in your FormController's formBackingObject() that gets your
object from the database before populating it from request parameters. This
means you don't have to store these fields in hidden fields.  If this
doesn't work, you might try storing the non-editable fields in hidden fields
or read-only fields.
