With zope.app.form (i.e. <browser:addform>) there is the
keyword_arguments keyword. That way you can pass any keywords you want
to the factory. I would suggest that.

I am sure there would be an equivalent solution with zope.app.formlib.

Otherwise you can use the sqlobjct default keyword to give the columns
default values until they are set with the real ones. But that may
result in bad data in your database as well as more SQL statements than
are necessary.
