The form options can be set to an explicit set by calling set_form_opts().

O_NL_OVERLOAD If this option is set and the cursor is at the end of the field then the new line character will perform the same function as a REQ_NEXT_FIELD driver request, moving to the next field in the form. By default no form options are set.
