Formik: Pass field as prop to FieldArray

Bug, Feature, or Question?

Question / Feature

Current Behavior

Currently the <FieldArray /> gets only the arrayHelpers and form passed in as prop. Is there any reason it does not get the field property passed in? Now I have to get the values 'manually' from the form prop.

Desired Behavior

It would be nice to get at least the value from the field (based on the field name).

It would be nice also for extra props to be passed down the component:

See https://codesandbox.io/s/6y8q0ql34z

<FieldArray
            name="categoryIds"
            shouldBePassed="hello"
            component={props => {
              console.log(props)
              return null
    }
/>

In the current state, shouldBePassed will not be passed down to the rendered component.

Also got confused by the fact that rest props are not passed to <FieldArray/> component. It would be nice to allow it.

At the same time workaround will look like this:

<FieldArray
    name="categoryIds"
    render={props => (
        <Component 
            {...props} 
            shouldBePassed="hello"
        />
    )
/>

Hola! So here's the deal, between open source and my day job and life and what not, I have a lot to manage, so I use a GitHub bot to automate a few things here and there. This particular GitHub bot is going to mark this as stale because it has not had recent activity for a while. It will be closed if no further activity occurs in a few days. Do not take this personally--seriously--this is a completely automated action. If this is a mistake, just make a comment, DM me, send a carrier pidgeon, or a smoke signal.
