My take is that one of the selling points of web2py was "everything you
need to get going" (aka "everything is in the box"),
and I think both FORM and LOAD are key parts of that. I think Massimo has
thought quite a bit about modularity, so I'd expect that FORM (and any
putative LOAD) would be easy to swap out.
That said, the pjax suggestion and the alpine suggestion are both
intriguing to someone with minimal VUE/REACT/ANGULAR experience.
