Oops. I don't muck with request.form directly very much,
as you may have noticed ;-)

does it work if you treat it like a plain python dict?
(which apparently it is).

#Get the HTML request object
myrequest = container.REQUEST
 
#preset the request field
myrequest.form['aformfield'] = 'a value'
 
#go to the form
return context.theform(REQUEST=myrequest)
