I’d like to be able to set a field value via PHP.

For example, I have a form where the user uploads a text file. Upon submitting the form, I do some processing on the text file, converting it into WP objects and such, and then I delete the uploaded file and I want to remove the path info from the upload field.

You have getOption to get the stored data, but no publicly exposed setOption.

Use the value argument in the field definition array.
```
array(
	'field_id'		=>	'my_text_field',
	'title'			=>	__( 'My Text Input', 'admin-page-framework-demo' ),
	'type'			=>	'text',
	'value'			=>	'',		// <-- always an empty string will be assigned to the field as the value
),
```

Another option is to use the options_{instantiated class name} hook but this is available in the development version (3.1.0x). You can download it here https://github.com/michaeluno/admin-page-framework/archive/3.1.0b.zip
