How can I pre-populate a custom field on the CPQ OpportunityLineItem from the Product before saving?

We use CPQ.  When adding a Product to an Opportunity, only a few fields copy to the OpportunityLineItem record while it is still being edited (Product Name, Sales Price).  CPQ states that I can't add a custom field to the OpportunityLineItem and populate it with a value before saving.  It's easy after saving, but I want the user to see the value before they save it.  The value is going to come from the Product that the new OpportunityLineItem record is being created from.
Thanks
