Unfortunately, I cannot help you here, since I have been using z3c.form recently (of course). z3c.form is better documented and provides the hooks I think you are looking for here. For example, the context for the form -- called content within z3c.form -- can be overwritten by implementing a custom ``getContent()`` method. If you do that, you can store your info in a session for example.
