What's the main reason against that approach?
I think using Freemarker macros can allow for more reusable chunks of UIs than Widget Forms can.
And of course, using Freemarker means you can make your UIs as pretty or plain as you want,
HTML/CSS limits are the limits here.
One problem with this approach I can see: I'm missing the convenient
<entity-options>.

I'm not a huge fan of this approach (ie a generic library of macros as a
form widget replacement or to use in ecommerce applications), but they
have been working on it and I imagine have at least had some success
with it.

Hi to all of you out there having fun with freemarker macros!
Just to confirm, freemarker macros cannot be nested?
Has anybody built any base suite of macros that can do most of what
Widget Forms can do?
