I have a CCK field with PHP-based default. This defaults is required, as it's used for 95% of node submissions, but I'd like it overridden when prepopulate works its magic. However, the default seems to prevail. I can't seem to figure out what I'm doing wrong, or if this is expected behaviour.

Please give this a try in the 2.x branch. Since prepopulate now runs later in the form building process it may resolve this conflict.

No new information since original post and this should be resoled in the 6.x-2.x branch.
