Thanks for the update. I think I'd prett much figured this much out
though, but it's good to hear it from you!

Hrm, I guess I've just been spoilt. I may be just speculating a bit,
but I liked the validate/*.yml format because I knew where I could
find validation rules (well, besides validateXxx). Now, I'd have to
check the Form class, and possibly also somewhere within the action
method (as opposed to a validateXxx() method). Not a big deal, but
it's just going to be slightly more confusing, perhaps? Again though,
I'll wait for docs before I start making these assumptions..

So should we literally write like '<input type="submit" />'? How will
this fit with (what I've seen of) the "formatter"/"style" of the form
(as in, the forms are currently generating <tr>...</tr>).
>From what I can pick up (based on what's in SVN now), the view code
will likely look something like:
<form>
<table>
<?php echo $form ?>
<tr><td colspan="2"><input type="submit" /></td></tr>
</table>
</form>
..Maybe I'll just wait for you to release docs - will likely clear up
my issues..!
Thanks,
Josh
