Sliced Design, one of our partners, recently contacted us with a great feature request. They were building a site with a contact form that needed to have some dynamic default values for some of it's fields. In the site they have links to the form that look like this: site.com/contact?name=Joe. They needed to have the "Name" text box automatically filled with the value from the "name" URL parameter.
Now on the surface this isn't that bad of a request. In their form template they could simply put in some logic to see if the {#global.request.get.name} value exists and then set the value for the Name field. Their request was to make this easier. They simply wanted to set the variable as the default value when setting up the form field.
