We should mention as well that this is a Google SoC project - and yes, we want to have the label/input functionality in there just like in Trinidad.

I'm not sure if this is relevant or possible; but for the Trinidad piece it would be nice to extend (or work similar to) <tr:panelFormLayout/>. We use this component and like it's functionality. Being able to specify the label on the component and not have a separate <outputText> is nice as is the ability to have a style sheet apply against all of the embedded components. When laying out a complex form like you outlined below, having the ability to specify/control the row/column positioning would be great. Right now the component does simple wrapping for rows/columns. Altough, someone with more experience with the component might want to comment because I could easily be missing some of it's functionality as I just started to use it recently. Chris....
