Hi Larry, I've been working on a library to provide conveniences similar to what you described. It makes it really easy to generate nicely styled forms. You can specify default values for your form, validation functions to run upon form submission, and actions to execute in the event of successful or failed validation. The library is called forms-bootstrap and it is meant to be used with the Noir Web framework and Twitter's Bootstrap CSS.
Heres the link: https://github.com/dpetrovics/forms-bootstrap I've been working on it in my spare time and its still quite new, so it may change quite a bit in the near future. I hope people will find it useful-- and I would welcome any feedback you may have!
