I think the new form.element() functionality just added to trunk
should be helpful to you:

I've found that with a little work, T2 does indeed do all that I want,
other than for when I need to build a form out of multiple tables :)

db.table.displays
db.table.represent
db.table.contact.label
db.table.field.comment
