That's the idea!  And while we're at it...

It seems to me that we could also be a little better about putting id
and class attributes on the elements generated by widgets, to allow
better and more fine-grained control of appearances via CSS.  For
example, I was thinking about adding a 'form_id' parameter to
DataController, similar to 'form_list' or 'form_template'.  This
'form_id' would act as a prefix for an id attribute put on the
generated form, where the rest of the id attribute would be something
like '_create' for a create form, and '_update' for an update form.

So, for example, you could give a DataController used for entering user
info a 'form_id' parameter of 'my_user', and when the DataController
generated an input form for creating a new user, the form would get an
id attribute of 'my_user_create'.

This would allow you to specify CSS to tailor the appearance of that
particular form, which might be a different appearance of a
'my_user_update' form.

What do you think?
