More importantly, we need to detail what functions people want forms
to do with some explicit examples. Someone mentioned that the nested
select wouldn't be good for an automobile catalog. If the exact
function was described with a detailed example, it would start the
ball rolling on what forms would be for. The original implementation
of forms was probably based on one specific need, and all the
"discussion" has resulted in trying to over-extend the Form to fit
other needs.
