Should be possible to access initial value

Forum post

Hello, team!

Coming to Bryntum from an ExtJS background, we noticed that the fields have no similar concept of original value.

We used it extensively for resetting fields to their original values. This is also the underlying mechanism for the form's dirty state which allows us to check if the form was changed and what specific fields were changed.

For Bryntum, one of our initial thoughts was to have a record property set on the fields' wrapping container/panel, which will help us track the changes and revert them. But this seems like an overkill for certain situations.

Do you have any suggestions on how to tackle this?
Are there any plans to add something similar to Bryntum in the near future?

Regards,
Serghei

Probably add a fn to acess meta.modifed to get the initial value. originalData wont be safe with useRawData
