What you want to do is use single-submit-button forms, not links.

Ooh, I hate those. Hello slow web-application, please force me
to click on your slow slow buttons a dozen times to change a few
settings.
How's that any different from doing it with links, in terms of user
interaction? If you really want to, you can even style a button to
look exactly like a link.
Ah, yes - in my hatred I mixed a few different issues. My hate for
the "many forms on one page" is when there are associated input
fields. With many forms I can't change all the input fields to do
one update.
(One variation that works is to have one form but many submit
buttons, that all submit the whole form obviously).
