[html-formfu] FormFu::ExtJS

[Mario Minati]

Hi Moritz,

I'll have a look at the label element.
I will take the NotAField element out of the repository the next days.

I found out today, that FF::Model::DBIC needs a hidden pk field for repeatable 
blocks anyhow. So I'm thinking of moving the hidden elements of a Repeatable 
(tab-/accordion-/...-)panel into a special div created by the repeatable 
panel by rewriting the transmitted data. Maybe througha customized formfu 
repeatable class.

That needs still some more thinking.

Greets,

Mario Minati
