Speaking here as a novice with the same questions as the OP: I like the functionality of HTML::FormFu as deployed in the tutorial example but also find the YAML a bit strange at first; I am, too, a bit stopped by the impression that the form does not become available until after it is submitted. I have a client/boss who likes JavaScript validation of an Ajax-y type and although I see hooks for JS in the HTML::FormFu docs it is not very obvious how to utilise them. Having the JavaScript in a file pulled in by the page template obviously goes against DRY principles if the logic is also present on the server.
