Yes. Do not set a default in an input field using it's value= option,
or using (:input 'type' 'name' 'value':) syntax, leave the value out
of the input control, and set a default by using markup
(:input default 'name' 'value':)
This will set an initial default value, but when a submission gets
aborted the last entered value will show.
