[Opensource] request being cleared on Transition.transition ???

[Mike Traum]

It seems that logic has been added to
Transition.transition(ControllerRequest, ControllerResponse, boolean) to
clear the old request object (Transition.java lines 864 & 884). Why was this
done?

This is not good for my app because I handle states in this way:
1. disply statePrompt which transitions to stateProcess upon user input
2. stateProcess processes the data. If a validate error occurs, set some
errors outputs and Transition.transition to statePrompt

Previously, this would work nicely. Now that the request is being cleared, I
no longer have the current values for the fields and the form will be blank
(except for the error messages).

Seems like what I'm doing here is pretty standard...
