for my $field (@{ $form->get_fields }) {
    my $data = $field->render_data;

    $c->stash->{data}->{ $data->{nested_name} }
        = $data->{value};
}

Up until a couple months ago, before the removal of the Render object
- the only supported way to *output* anything, or use any part of the
form for output was with the Render object returned by
$form->render();

Now, it's a little less clear, because render() returns a string - but
if you're not using one of the current output methods - render(),
string() or tt() - you should use render_data() - these are the only
supported ways of using the form for output.
