Imagine the following scenario:

We have an app where users logs in. We have a “submit feedback” button which opens a fibery public form in a new browser tab

The user gets to its and the first thing they see is “enter your name and email”  
when they would be justified in thinking

> “I already authenticated in your app, why are you asking me for the name and email again\>”

Wouldn’t it be better if we already pre-populated the name and email such as by passing those via url params?

Something like this?

Perfect, thanks.  
I did a quick search but apparently I missed it.
