Rather than rewinding inside the header and then having to find room
to display validation error messages and such within the header, I'd
much rather have the form post directly to the Login page for rewind
and subsequent display of error messages, etc.  This allows the form
in my header to be a simple shortcut, but I can leave links to the
password recovery page and such exclusively on the login page.  Is
there any way to do this?

It occured to me to have LoginPage implement ExternalPage, but that
still seems to bypass all automatic validation, not to mention the
fact that there doesn't seem to be a way to cause a Tapestry Form
component to post to an ExternalPage.

This brings me to a 2nd problem.  I've got another form that posts to
another site's form. Obviously, I can build the form in raw html, but
it would be cooler to build it from tapestry components so that I can
prepopulate fields with values from the user profile and such. I am
not even sure that I can do that with Insert components into raw html,
since it would result in malformed html - a span tag containing my
Insert component within the 'value' attribute of an insert element.
Any thoughts on this one?
