How would you do that?
I can't do this:
echo $htmlBefore.$this->Form->input().$htmlAfter ;
because I need to include it inside the generated HTML. Of course, I could
create the whole HTML outside the helper and use the "direct" method
('text' for example) to get only the input tag, but it would be more
complicated and I would lose every advantage of using a custom helper.
Actually, this is a plugin, so I just want it to be easy to use, even if
it's not easy to write (well, my code is currently working so it is not
that hard). I think it's easier to write:
echo $this->Form->input('field', ['prepend' => '@']) ;
than to write the whole bootstrap HTML.
