I'll definitely be working on a system at some point that generates forms from the definition of a "content type". I don't know if those definitions will be done in terms of a Zope interface or not yet. So at this point my attitude is "it can be convenient to generate forms from content", which may or may not turn out to be the same thing as "it can be convenient to generate forms from Zope interfaces". > As with all libraries of this kind the necessary abstraction requires some > new concepts or terminologies.

There's a chapter about that: http://docs.repoze.org/deform/serialization.html Further critical eye on documentation appreciated.
