As per one of your specific comments:
"the 
 

Cocoon+XForms combination hits some targets for
which CForms is less "
   

What target are you thinking about?
 

Working with an "XML In, XML Out" architecture, with XML models which 
are never  represented as any kind of Java object model, does not seem 
to be the focus of CForms.  XForms handles this pretty well - see for 
example its support for multiple xf:instance elements, use of  
xf:itemset and xf:copy.

I share Ugo's frustration with the current state of XForms 
implementations, but the situation is improving -- and for all its 
weaknesses, it's the only true standard we've got.
