[Catalyst] More than one form per page with C::C::FormBuilder?

[Danny Warren]

Yea, I was thinking of something along those lines.  One idea I was 
playing with was creating a new base controller that inherits from 
C::C::FormBuilder, and sets the stashed variables based on the form name 
(from the *.fb config files).  That is the least-hacky thing I can think 
of that lets me keep all the niceness without a bunch of extra code in 
each action.

One bonus to that is that it removes visual ambiguity in the templates 
as to which form is being rendered.  Will post back if that works 
decently, but I am still open to ideas if others have solved this one 
already.

Thanks!
Danny
