Actually, I reckon a link that submits a form is actually pretty generic -
right up there with an image that submits a form.  Hence my preference for
the framework.

Just to clarify the name (had this discussion with Howard earlier) -
"LinkSubmit" follows the ImageSubmit convention.  This component is a
primarily a form component, and does not use AbstractServiceLink or its
subclasses at all.  It tries its best to act just like a Submit/ImageSubmit
component...
