I ran into this issue a few weeks ago as well. It's a horrible legacy feature that still exists. It's actually even worse. If you have any form elements that are also named after an internal property of the form object, then that input will shadow the native property.

The only way to access it is to clone the form (without children) and then access that property.

I asked a question on stackoverflow about it:
