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.
