 ### UPDATES IN 2.2.4
 
+This release fixes a regression introduced in 2.2.3 to the Form component.
+
+Basically, a fix included in 2.2.3 created a situation that enforced the
+`preferFormInputFilter` flag; prior to 2.2.3, the code acted as if it the flag
+was enabled, but as a side effect of several bugs.
+
+2.2.4 enables the flag by default, which restores the previous behavior, while
+retaining the fixes to 2.2.3. Additionally, the flag may now be set via form
+options passed either to a factory or to the `setOptions()` method.
+
 Please see [CHANGELOG.md](CHANGELOG.md).
