It seems to me that what we want are multiple forms on a page and what is being proposed is a way to have one big form that gets processed in pieces. To me the stumbling block seems to be in Forms.js. When we display a form using showForm the only form it knows about is its self. In order to process multiple Forms something needs to know about multiple Forms. In order not to break encapsulation, it is essential that each form have its own separate definition. I may be missing something here, but it seems to me that if you want to show multiple forms on a page you need to move the showForm method to a place where multiple forms can be collected, examined, validated, bound and processed. Say, right along side sendPageAndWait.

I have more to say on this and I have another e-mail in process that will take a bit more thought before its complete. I just wanted to throw this out there and any comments are more than welcome.
