Absolutely you can, and the rules are pretty much just like for adding
decorators, validators, and filters.
Let's say you create an element, My_Form_Element_FooBar. You then need
to tell your form to look for elements on the 'My_Form_Element' prefix
path, which you would do via the 'prefixPath' configuration setting:
fooForm.prefixPath.element.myFormElement.prefix = "My_Form_Element"
fooForm.prefixPath.element.myFormElement.path = "My/Form/Element"
Then, to add a new "FooBar" element via configuration, you would simply
reference the type, "FooBar", and it will be found automatically.
