You are absolutly right, it do not cut the set of data, when RLS is pre-filled  
by user and then form is saved.

And that's what I'm doing right now almost all the time.

Well. As you pointed above, using TALES brings inconsistency, so I'll have to 
reengineer my current forms customization.

I wonder if it would be acceptable to implement List Method customization 
while updating form? I really do have cases, where such restrainting of set 
is very user-friendly (but only if it works with directly saved form data). I 
think that I'll put it on our enhancment list, for now with low priority 
(data could be validated with workflow after all).

Well, thanks for your suggestions.

Bye,
Luke
