I propose adding a superclass to BaseHandlerTag because all W3C
form-related elements (that's more than input fields) share a "common
attributes" ... so I want the new superclass to be the basis for the
FormTag and OptionTag too, so that I don't have to hardcode the same
properties. I would then push those common attributes from
BaseHandlerTag to the new class.

I don't know because I wasn't around at the start when these classes
were being developed. I'd hazard a guess though - most of the html
tags are geared around form field elements (text, textarea, checkbox
etc) which share alot of common attributes - and are defined in
BaseHandlerTag to avoid repetition. Looking at form tag - it doesn't
share many of those and so it makes no sense to inherit from a base
class that defines them all. The same is true for option tag.
