Thanks for your release.

>     This is what our form definition might look like:
>
>       my $form_defn = {
>           options    => { method => 'POST',
>                           action => $url,
>                         },
>           elements   => [ '<h2>Your login credentials</h2>',
>                           cfm_text_field( name       => 'email',
>                                           label      => 'Email address',
>                           ...
>
>                         ],
>           validation => { required => [ qw(email password) ],
>                           constraint_methods => {
>                               email => email(),
>                           },
>                         },
>       };

Do you think that form definition data could be reasonably loaded from
say a YAML file or whatever in the flavor of formbuilder source
directive?
