Interesting indeed! I could be wrong of course, but seems like most of the ideas bounced around the past couple of days have been ideas that have been around for some time already. It seems like it's only a matter of which ones will be chosen by Joe, Don, and any other committer participating. I think this idea here by Don is the first one mentioned that I haven't heard before and certainly could put a different spin on the combined form+action object. What scenario it's useful for, I don't know yet. I guess I was just awakened by the fresh idea. :) Hubert On Mon, 14 Feb 2005 08:48:31 -0800, Don Brown <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Joe Germuska wrote: > <snip /> > > We can create an interface for Action w/o deprecating Action itself.
