A question came up today inquiring about a design my company has
recently completed. There is currently in the design an option to
reset the form on one of the pages. Does anyone have any opinions on
the usefulness of that feature, or statistics on whether or not people
use it?
Luke Wroblewski argues that "actions like Reset and Cancel are
unnecessary and should be either removed or de-emphasized in the user
interface to avoid mistakes."

I tend to agree. However, I think Cancel can be useful. Thoughts on
form resetting, cancel options and usability?
