You do not want to validate the data? Manipulator can validate data,
and you can write your own manipulator class according forms.txt. And
if you want to use a custom manipulator you should write your own save
function.
The context is a iterator, and manipulator need a dict data to
validate, so if you want to pass context to a manipulator object, you
should convert context object to a dict, just like:
clist = list(context)
clist.reverse()
d = {}
for c in clist:
d.update(c)
And d will be the dict data.
