I understand the general concept but I still miss the point. the HTML
generated by {{=form}} can be replaced by the HTML generated with
dreamweaver (*) and this is decoupled from the validation process that
happens in the controller.
(*) you have to make sure your form includes {{=form.hidden_fields}},
somwhere displays {{=form.errors}} and fields have the proper names,
values, and classes.
I guess I do not see how they could be more friendlier. Can you give a
concrete example? I do not see how web2py gets in the way of forms.
