I'm pretty sure there are forms reuse mechanisms in Windows Forms, but not so sure about within ASP.NET. There's nothing really analogous to this built into CF, since forms themselves aren't objects within CF. However, you could certainly build components to generate forms, to provide your own inheritance functionality. I don't know if it would be worth the effort. I also don't know whether there's any functionality like this within Mach-ii - I'd probably look there first. However, the serious question isn't really a purely technical one, but rather a question of process - making sure that you figure out basic requirements for all the groups that will use your application in the future, or alternatively providing so much flexibility that you will be able to meet their requirements without knowing what they will be! This isn't a trivial task.
