AxKit::XSP::PerForm is quite similar to the callback nature of ASP.NET,
though of course we don't have a GUI form designer. We could certainly work
on auto-loading of values from a database, but I think you'll find it's
already pretty easy. Also PerForm has no automatic built in system to "do
the right thing" for the different browsers - you have to write separate
stylesheets yourself, but the "use different stylesheets for different
clients" bit is built into AxKit, so it's not a complete disaster. :-)
