Because I looked through all the CGI::FormBuilder docs, and couldn't see 
anything resembling column_info (except for defining field_types in the 
first place). Whereas in dumping the ResultSet I _could_. I thought I 
might be able to use a DBIC method to get at the column_info for fields 
defined in the formbuilder object.

I'm beginning to wish I hadn't either, as it's giving me as much grief 
in development than anything I've used before. I ditched HTML::Widget in 
favour of it. I did use Data::FormValidator via the 
CGI::Application::Plugin::ValidateRM, which was nice. What do you use 
for form building/validating (or don't you do that sort of thing)?
