Certainly.  You could easily find more complex needs that would make a simple 
declarative form not sufficient.  At that point, you should be considering a 
non-dynamic subclass.  It's impossible to satisfy everyone with a single solution.  
The goal is to find some solution that will make a considerable number of people 
mostly happy.
