>From my understanding, if you have a form (or any other chunk of html)
that is used by several views, then it clearly qualifies as an
element. Sure, it's a "private" element (only used by views in /user),
but still an element.
You could always create subfolders under the elements folder, so you'd
have $this->renderElement('user/admin_form'); to render app/views/
elements/user/admin_form.ctp.
If that seems odd to you, try creating an 'elements' subfolder under
app/views/user/, then registering app/views/user as a view path (in
bootstrap.php), so that View::renderElement() will look there too.
That feels a bit hacky, but should work.
