Micah Dubinko writes "There's a new technology called XForms nearing completion at the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C), for platform-independent user interfaces. You can read more in the spec (especially chapter 7) or an introductory article on xml.com.
Also, there is a bugzilla entry for XForms. Stop by and vote--help bring this cool technology one step closer to a desktop near you."

This doesn't have anything to do with user interfaces. If XForms were a reality in the latest versions of both major browsers today, forms would still suck. Because web interaction designers don't put users first when they think about how their forms flow. They design them to the machine's needs instead.
XForms are more or less the way forms in HTML should have been implemented to begin with, but they aren't where the problem lies.
