Preload vud_field based on field settings [#1365382]

OK, I added vud_field to one node type, configured it properly, but it doesn't show anywhere (not on the node edit for, or the node view).

Using devel and dpm(get_defined_vars()); shows that the field is completely empty, although the variable is set.

Am I doing something wrong?

PS. I tested this with the 7.x-1.x-dev that drush downloads, and the one from git.

I have found that you need to save the node before the widget will appear.

The problem is that the field items is empty before node object is saved (or resaved how it is described in note#4) with values for items provided by
I solved the problem with hook_field_prepare_view() , in the same way as default image implemented in image.module, and as for me it is a good solution.

But while a patching I noticed that you can't change voting settings for specific entity and in terms of that, storing 'vud_widget' and 'votingapi_tag' for each entity is useless.
So I think that we have to make voting settings configurable for a particular entity too or rework the data storing. Making voting settings configurable for a particular entity looks more attractive for me , because that feature will be required by users, but probably it is an object of discussion.

I guess it was a bug before some commits. If you are able to reproduce it in current 7.x-1.x please open a new issue about it.
