Hi Dave,
this is not any bug report
I thought you are the best person to address this question
it just came to my mind after your new module "inline entity form rendered"
My doubt is why form is not a view mode?
which would enable us to theme and do callbacks,pre-process, do all kind of stuff from configuration.
I am facing a problem to create an order form with entity reference field referencing product entity,
I could only get the title as reference and cannot get any other field ,eg: SKU in to the "form table as field.
could you pl throw in some thoughts?

Unfortunately Drupal 7 core provides us no way to use view modes with forms. The only way I can recommend forward is a custom module implementing whatever logic you need for the forms using a hook_form_alter() or hook_field_attach_form_alter().
