I've tried a number of things to get a simple multiline input that spans the 
whole width of the window, to no effect. 
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/components/forms/#form-controls looks 
promising but I  can't figure out how to map the textarea source to this:

<div class="form-group">
<label for="exampleFormControlTextarea1">Example textarea</label>
<textarea class="form-control" id="exampleFormControlTextarea1" 
rows="3"></textarea>
</div>

I've tried _div.form-group but how do I get the <textarea rows="3"> to be 
generated?

Do you know where the documentation lives for the mapping from the _p, 
_div.form_group, etc. to the <p>, <div class="form-group"> ?

I notice in your tm-report page you use _div.form_group for many of the fields 
but then switch to a completely different paradigm emit_input for multiline 
input. What is the reason for that?

Thanks,
