Description (last modified by )
today dijit.form.Form doesn't handle some straight-forward use-cases. For instance:
- addChild() doesn't work
- handling of native HTML input types is feeble to non-existant
- form.Form can't auto-generate fieldsets from groups of item/label/required pairs/objects
- form.Form doesn't handle automatic XHR-ing of form data
- there's no dojo.data integration

Owner for dijit.Form definitely appreciated... we are kind-of waiting on Joose but he's been busy recently; he said he would hopefully have more time in the summer, IIRC, which is coming soon.
addChild() doesn't work
I'm not sure what addChild() would mean on free-form HTML like a form.
handling of native HTML input types is feeble to non-existant
Dup of #4408
Anyway, this meta-ticket needs to be split into individual tickets and then can consider each one.

I'm going to close this ticket. It's too general. #4408 addresses the second issue, and the other issues need to be filed as separate tickets (although really, we need a volunteer to implement stuff like dojo.data integration.
