This is even a bigger deal now, because soft forms aren't applying when you do something like http://wagn.org/card/new?card%5Btype%5D=Ticket
Half-true. the cardtype is getting applied, but not the content. E.g. status+*right+*default

I think type and content are fixed now, and possibly permissions, but haven't tested that aspect.

Permissions don't work yet; see the example.

That's not how default permissions work. It goes to the more restrictive. See

secret+*rform is more restrictive than the default (which is read by Anyone, as are both elephant and secret), so it should be applied, yes?
And content is not always being applied. Try creating a new card and setting it to Blog entry. No default content, despite:
DRAFT — To publish, remove this section and change this card's permissions to be viewable by Anyone.

currently plus card permissions do not respect forms settings, whether hard or soft; they just take the more restrictive of the two part cards. seems like new ticket, medium pri.
the blog entry issue is one of a number of issues we encounter when switching cardtypes (like edit instructions). Soft forms are tricky in this context - they should be applied only when content is blank. If I type "Earlier today..." and then switch to Blog Entry, it should retain that text. This one is closer to the original ticket title, but I think a new narrower ticket makes sense here too.

add soft form content as cardtype menu changes
respect form setting on plus cards
