	Done.

	I understand your point.

	My goal is to provide a "form framework" that can speed up form 
creation and modification. In this aspect a YAML file is far quickly 
updatable than a Perl class. In a sense it is like the class loader in 
RDBO but only in its dynamic version (of course, I generate the forms at 
start, not each time the action is called, like C::C::FormBuilder does). 
But I want best of both worlds, i.e. the nice Rose framework with the 
very easy C::C::FormBuilder approach, and in the case of the Rose 
framework I want RHTMLO and RDBO glued together.

	Thank you for your explanation.

	I think I could name my module C::C::Rose::FormManager, or something 
like that...? ;-) I plan to use your C::C::Rose and C::M::RDBO base classes.
