True. Fine by us.

I'm not sure that it has to be "centric" to be compatible. Truth is we made
it for Webkit, but thought that it was important (and simple) to make it
generalized, so we did.

FunFormKit is more "centric" in that it can't run without Webkit, but I
think Ian has pretty significantly moved on to FormEncode.

If there is sufficient interest, I could make FormKit into an egg, and get
it into the Cheese Shop... then it could be required by Webkit.
