Base FormField class. FormFields are objects, which can be outputted as well in ad_forms or asHTML included in wiki pages. FormFields support: - validation - help_text - error messages - internationalized pretty_values and inherit properties of the original datatypes via slots (e.g. for boolean entries). FormFields can be subclassed to ensure tailor-ability and high reuse. todo: at some later time, this could go into xotcl-core.

Documented Parameters:

language_specific
