Well, I am still not sure about the full-blown AJAX side, as
I do not have any experience with that, but I would imagine
that for a "standard" DB-orientated form, that all the checks
and look-ups could be defined in an XML config file and the
JS generated from that... the idea is to avoid the hand-coding
as this is where one gets errors.  

No, the code for this "dream" scenario does not exist - hence 
my original post and (other)  Johannes' expansion thoughts as 
a precursor to such.  But code reuse would have to be a high 
priority, otherwise we have not improved things at all; just offered 
Yet Another way to do DB interactions.  (The rest of Cocoon: 
transformations, pipelines, etc would still, of course, continue 
to serve their usual roles)
 
Of course, if there are even *easier* ways.... ;-)

Doesn't this mean writing a full-blown App in Javascript?
No more re-use of actions, transformations, pipelines, ...?
No more Lego bricks to build an App?

Are there tools and libraries to support this task?
