Subject: $form->value returns undef if no values are submitted
If you instantiate a form, then call ->process, and finally call ->values, it returns a single item, undef. This is really problematic since the documentation says it returns a hashref. Presumably you just need to set the default to be an empty hashref.

To clarify, this happens when the params passed to the form in the ->process is an empty hashref.
