 Currently, when submitting a form, if 'some_field' isn't in the data
 payload (e.g. it wasn't included in the form, perhaps because its value is
 derived from another field), and 'some_field' has a default value on the
 model, it cannot be overwritten with 'self.cleaned_data'.

 This does not really follow the paradigm of modifying data in
 'cleaned_data'. It requires the user to copy and overwrite the raw data
 submitted with the form.
