Well, technically you don't need scaffolding to do that. Scaffolding is
just what its name implies - it is quickly done code (in this case,
normally it would be generated) which would serve as a starting point
for a form and its update/insert/read/delete routines. As far as using
the form as an argument goes, you wouldn't need scaffolding for that.
You could simply pass the form (don't even *have* to do that really) to
a function, say update, and compare the names of the fields in the form
to the names of the columns in the table, then update/insert
automatically based on that.
Along with many others on this list and elsewhere, I've done such
things. Did you have a question about it?

'Scafolding' is an idea I picked up on the RubyOnRails lists.
Basically forms are built and processed in a generic way based on the
column names in queries.
So the form is an argument and the component updates, inserts or
deletes depending on some other arguments.

I'm not sure what you mean.
The form scope *does* look like a structure...
