[Opensource] Is the use of DefaultForm a common/best practice on Expresso projects?

[Mike Traum]

It doesn't seem as if people are using DefaultForm, but I couldn't tell you
for sure.
 
I think DefaultForm was added to give functionality similar to struts 1.1
DynaForm, which simply allows you to have a ActionForm-like object without
having to manually set all of the getters and setters. Being that Struts 1.1
Integration beta is around, you may want to just go with that and try
DynaForms.
 
Regarding ActionForm's in expresso, a think there are at least a few (myself
included) who use them within expresso. I find them nice under certain
circumstances...

I can't seem to find much information on the use of DefaultForm.  I have
been checking out the javadoc and have found the method
Controller.findControllerForm(ControllerRequest) which returns an
ActionForm.  So are others using DefaultForm or are they using just the
ActionForm or are others bypassing the concept all together?

Thanks
