Hmm... I'm not sure about this?  Why should the FormType class have 
anything to do with SQL?  It assumes the storage device; a relational 
database.  FormType should not be doing this.  It should be storage device 
agnostic and deal with general java objects/datatypes.

Does anyone feel the same way, or am I just being pedantic?
