Perhaps a wrapper to ->post( form => { ... } )?

    my $tx = ...->res->forms( name => 'login' )
    ->submit({ user => 'me', password => '12345'});

being a shortcut to 

    my $form = ...->res->dom->at('form name[login]');
    my $action = parse_action_from( $form );
    my %inputs = parse_inputs_from( $form );
    my $tx = $ua->post( $action => form => {
        %inputs, user => 'me', password => '12345' } );

Where the parse_X_from are easy enough to write, but annoying.

# default to the first form on the page
perl -Mojo -E 'say g("http://localhost:3000";)->res->forms
    ->submit( user => "me", pass => "sekret" )->dom->at("title")->text';
