Comment:
> It seems to me that BoundField.value/data need to use the field's widget
rather than HiddenInput as the latter's value_from_datadict() doesn't know
how to handle each field's data.
It should use the HiddenInput all the time during the `as_hidden` call.
Otherwise, the data given into a form and the data returned (e.g. after a
POST) differs.
Widgets set with `hidden_initial=True` render their data two times: with
field.widget and with field.hidden_widget. Depending on whether or not its
a bound form, results in different formatting of the value/data.
This would be an example fix to show what I mean:
https://github.com/srkunze/django/commit/9480ce0c3853a47001bd12e339c263695c38978f
`hidden_initial=True` results in `only_initial=True`. That means the
'''hidden_initial parts''' of the POST data should not be changed.
PS:
Could somebody explain me the difference between '''data''' and
'''value''' with regards to BoundFields? Looks quite messy to me (e.g.
`BoundField.data` returns `value_from_datadict`; `prepare_value` gets
`data`, but it expects `value` according to its definition).
