Description

If a model has a field of user, just like creator, owner. And this field should automaticlly assigned by request.user. there also is some models fields are bound to request boject , just like last_modifier,last_ip, and so on. Although, we can do this in views functions ,but should it be done at form layer?

def is_valid(self,request=None):
  ...
def clean(self,request=None):
  ...

alternativly, sovle the problem of that models which bounded to request object can't use generic view create_update as well as others models ,in another way.

Decoupling forms from the request object is a deliberate design decision.

As for your alternative request, I'm pretty sure it's the same as #12392. The comments on that ticket provide an example of what you want.
