*whew*! Something I wrote works for somebody else. :-)

Not yet; I hope to have a full proposal out later in the week; more on
that below. The ideas I'm looking at now are:

  * "sectioned" forms -- i.e., forms that have grouped items
  * Element dependencies (elements whose validations depend on the
    values of other elements)
  * Multi-page forms
  * AJAX interaction:
    * Validating single or multiple elements via AJAX
    * Autocompleters

Good idea; I'll put one in later today.

Yes. Basically, once I've incorporated or addressed each of the major
stories for this component (and by addressed, I may say, "for future
delivery"), I'll write up a formal proposal in the wiki to gather
additional feedback, and start working on getting unit tests and code
fleshed out. After a couple weeks of feedback, I'll incorporate those
ideas and prepare the component for core. Hopefully, we'll see a
cohesive component addressing the major functionality addressed in the
previous proposals, as well as the functionality we want to address from
other frameworks.
