Hi Peter,
makes perfect sense. Maybe this is a more advance component and will be
better managed in your hands, since I'm still in the process of understand
many things here. Moreover I'm making some progress in MDL branch, so If
you want to grab it feel free to do it. I think a Form component is one of
the basic pieces, and many people would come to FlexJS and will try this as
one of the first things.
Thanks
