Personally for forms id like to see RAD forms abilities from Zend_DB_Table structures
Wow, what a coincidence, that is exactly what I've spent the whole day and last weekend doing. I'm not sure on the current progress of the Zend_Form proposal(s) or general discussion in the community, but I know its a top priority. Until there is an official component, I've extended Zend_Db_Table_Adapter to provide basic filters and validators for tables, based on the metadata. And a new component called Jack_Form, which acts as an abstraction layer between the models and your controllers/views, allowing you to create forms based on table structures, your own custom specification, or both. It works pretty well so far, and offers a lot of flexibility (nothing is automatically tied to the table structures, and everything can be overridden).

As I said, I don't know what the current progress on the ZF form component is right now, but if anyone working on it is reading this I would be happy to offer my implementation, or any ideas etc.

I suggest work with the developers and merge your efforts into an official package. It would be a shame to have wasted time etc ?
