Ok agree.

I started using blank lines to improve readability of the yaml files.
Usually I would say stick with the way we usually do things in Perl, in other 
words use camel case.
But we I look at a camel cased yaml config it's easier to ready lowercase 
types as the element names is (usually) also lowercase.

What about creating forms the HTML-Widget way? 
I think that looks better with camel case as it's perl code.

That would led me back to allowing coding forms in both ways and lc-ing the 
element type (forcing element and maybe constraints, etc module names to be 
lowercase on disk).



OT:
By the way, did you ever try to right align one form element in a multi 
element composed of alltogether three elements?


Enjoy your weekend,
