I also have an Silva Extension, called Tropos, which provides form elements in 
the HTML Forms editor (not kupu!), as well as per-form configuration (html 
email confirmation and form-owner emails, save to database, and a few 
others).

We've been using it at Bethel for a few years now, but I've never written 
complete documentation so I haven't released it.  I know University College 
London is using it...  Let me know if you're interested.

Cheers,
Andy
