Hmm, I need to fix the documentation!

The correct methods are:
    $form->model->default_values;
    $form->model->update;
    $form->model->create;

Note that $form->default_values() does something else entirely [1]

There are many tests in the HTML-FormFu-Model-DBIC distribution, which
is probably the best place to start.
