One more "hello" :)
another thing I have designed is a layout and behavior of forms - you

Still working on responsive, but it is not that important in this
stage. What do you think about this concept of forms used across our
whole application?
Hi Jarda,
Looks good, as usual!
A few nits, though I think they're largely personal opinion:
- I think the "?" for tooltips should be closer to the input. Maybe on
the other side of the label? Or maybe on the right of the input? It's
just where I would look for it.
- While using a "*" to mark required inputs has a lot of precedent, it's
also sometimes used to denote fine print or a footnote. Would it be
clearer if we used bold text for required fields, maybe?
I wonder about the markup, though. Will a developer building a form need
to deal with creating a .control_group that contains a .left_column and a
.right_column? It seems like this could be error-prone. Or will the form
library we discussed automate this?
The Date input does not work in my browser.
Overall, this is great, though. It looks both aesthetically pleasing and
intuitive.

Hey Jarda,
One thought that crossed my mind is to think about the usage and look
and feel of these form elements in conjunction with a jQuery plugin the
Katello team uses currently called Jeditable. We find it to be great
for one off edits within our workflows. I don't believe Conductor
currently uses anything like this, but as we work towards some common
elements we may consider finding uses for it across the board.
