Came across this form process today, and really liked it:

https://studentaid.gov/idr/application/demo/consent

It's a separate demo of the form, where all of the information is already filled in with "Jane Doe", Address, etc, but the substantial choices are still available (i.e. are you married, etc). It wasn't perfect, as it'll ask you to fill in other info later on, but the idea of a demo form that people could use to understand the process of what they're about to get into without actually giving their information would be useful. There's been at least one user feedback issue asking for exactly that, I remember seeing more though.

The most general way to do something like this in DA I think would be some extra JS (similar to what we're doing in ALKiln) to automatically fill in recognized fields like Names and addresses. Ideally, using would be as simple making the separate demo interview, and including that JS file, and maybe disabling server data collection and any e-filing or submission that might be present.

This is definitely an interesting idea; I'm also thinking the broader picture is to give people some preview of what the form does or questions it will ask. So I'd link it to the thoughts behind #260 and #647
