lock.show is not overriding set properties (prefill)

[ajones-miovision]

I'm having trouble setting the 'prefill' value in lock.show. I set up an initial value in the lock initialization and then I attempt to override the value on lock.show. According to the documentation, options provided in lock.show should override options set during initialization.

in lockProvider.init I have:

prefill: {
    email: 'test@test.com'
}

and in lock.show i override this value

prefill: {
    email: 'signup@test.com
}

but the page always loads with the initial email set.

Sorry, i just realized that prefill is not overridable

But why? I have a use case where I want to set the email address from query string values from redirect URLs in the email templates, e.g. A welcome email with a link inside to lock widget with initial page forgotPassword and the users email already filled in so they only have to click Send Email....
