This is a rewrite of Catalyst::Plugin::FormBuilder which is now deprecated.

Key features include:

* Support for Mason and HTML::Template in addition to Template Toolkit.

* Greater control over stash and method names to avoid collision

* Compatibility with Catalyst::Plugin::SubRequest

* Behavior consistent with CGI::FormBuilder template usage. In other
words, $c->stash->{formbuilder} = $formbuilder->prepare is used,
instead of $c->stash->{formbuilder} =  $formbuilder.  Consequently,
tutorial on using templates at formbuilder.com, should be more helpful
to Catalyst users.

* Underlying action class can be sub-classed (undocumented) for
greater run-time control
