I guess I need a couple of you to hold me down long enough to digest ad_form and the form builder. Every time I try to tutor myself in the details my brain turns to mush. No, actually my brain is revealed to be composed of mush.

Anyway, the proposal for moving the adps must be backwards compatible: i.e. the files in the same directory should probably be used if they exist, and there isn't an ad_return_template call in the tcl file specifying otherwise. But don't I remember that now the adp is sourced first, not the tcl file? Seems like there might be incompatible changes necessary.

It also seems like a per instance directory should be used. I'm not trying to design anything here, just throwing out ideas.
