[web/data] Ignore disabled widgets in cw.utils.formContents() (closes #3544492) 17.12.1 Disabled controls : http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#h-17.12.1 When set, the disabled attribute has the following effects on an element: * Disabled controls do not receive focus. * Disabled controls are skipped in tabbing navigation. * Disabled controls cannot be successful. The third one is the important one. 17.13.2 Successful controls : http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/interact/forms.html#successful-controls A successful control is "valid" for submission. Every successful control has its control name paired with its current value as part of the submitted form data set. Bottom line, disable widgets should not be part of the names and values lists returned by formContents().

The personal information describing a User can be modified using the edit form
of the user. You can access it through the dropdown-menu under the link on the
top-right of the window, labeled by your login. In this menu, click the
"profile" link to go to this form.

Each user can as well customize the site appearance using the "user's
preferences" link in this menu. This will show you a form to configure which
boxes are displayed, in which order, etc...
