The view doesn't create an instance of the form, the Action does, and passes it to the view. For instance, I have often used a simple subclass of Action as a base class for all my actions that separates the execute method into executeGet and executePost methods. This methods might share some functionality in a certain Action, like populating a list for a drop-down.
