[Zope-dev] Raw-input control for input widgets

[Jim Fulton]

I'd like to have more control over input widgets.  I'd like to
have a way to get, set, and clear their raw input.  The main use case
for this is to be able to store unprocessed raw inputs:

- in wizards or multi-page forms

- to allow a user to leave a task and return to it later

A secondary use case is to allow inputs to be cleared so that
user inputs aren't displayed after a form is redisplayed after
acting on previous inputs.

I believe we discussed this a couple of years ago, but nothing
was ever done.

Thoughts?  Unfortunately, I don't think we can do anything
for this before 3.2.
