Perhaps a bug here, but in 2.0 the edit form doesn't populate the
page text with $DefaultPageTextFmt anymore.  There was some reason I
decided not to do this (probably having to do with dealing with Fmt
strings in the text template).  Try the following instead:

if ($action=='edit' && !@$_POST['text']) {
  if (strpos($pagename,'Session')!==false) {
    $formpage = ReadPage(FmtPageName('$Group.SessionTemplate',$pagename));
    $DefaultPageTextFmt = $formpage['text'];
    $_POST['text'] = $formpage['text'];
  }
}
  
If that doesn't work, I'll find a way to make it work.
