My thoughts were that there are some basic requirements for forms that  
each language (HTML forms and XForms) can decide upon how they are best  
implemented keeping the overall language and language history in mind. I  
remember there being a list of these, but I can't find them. Those basic  
requirements would ensure architectural consistency.

I'm not sure how detailed these requirements should be, but I suppose I  
could try listing some:

  * Should be able to perform PUT, POST, GET, and DELETE requests
  * Should support application/x-www-form-urlencoded as output format
  * Should support the following controls: text, multiline text, password,  
etc.
