Comment in cf584ea:

I think formish already covers your use case ("return a set of default values for a given form") via the Widget.empty attribute.

I have a gut feeling (occasionally my gut feelings are correct ;-)) schemaish is the wrong place to apply defaults although, quickly scanning the patch, it doesn't seem to force the default on anyone, just makes it available right?

The thing about defaults is that they're often more closely related to the user interface e.g. a creation form might have lots of defaults but the edit form for the same schema might want the user to edit everything. Perhaps a better example might be a form for entering some data vs parsing the same data from a CSV. Again, both sets of data would be to the same schema but the form might default certain fields (dates, etc) so the user doesn't have to bother entering them.

Perhaps I'm being too "purist" here. What do you think?

Comment in 898a129:

render_response adds to the headers default list, so I think it will be accumulating a new Content-Type header every time it's called with no headers arg.
