Yes, but there is a space between using the framework to render the fields in one go (i.e $form->render() ) and rendering each field separately using $form['fieldName]->render(). Having the ability to inject html stubs between fields makes it possible to keep the template simple and keep the whole form setup in one file - the one creating the file. As an example I've been working on a project with a fairly complex form, in reality it is one master form with 4 embedded forms and ca 20 fields backed by a doctrine model. On top of this the form is a multipage wizard. If I had been able to insert some HTML snippets into the form instead of expanding it into "designer mode" it would have saved me a lot of time as my clients request variations of the form as well as move fields back and forth. I guess I'll just create my own HTMLField widgets and get on with it, but IMHO this would be a very simple but useful feature to have in the framework.
