Like I said, it's mostly a glimmer in my eye. It involves a significant
change in design, putting the concept of a schema at the center, where
the other parts of the form definition (TextField, etc) are a view on
that schema.
Something like SQLObject would be attached, in that it would be possible
to annotate the columns with validation and potentially view
information. The validation wouldn't be solely form-oriented, but would
be applied to all interfaces to the object.
I put some of the code I've been playing with into the Sandbox, under
FormEncode.
Another hope I have is that the new design will be more testable.
