doable but rarely used, inconvenient and awkward, alex proposes allowing buttons to be stand-alone hypermedia controls which also allows multiple buttons located within a form to perform different actions (e.g. save v. cancel)


Oh for sure, standalone elements would definitely be better, I just wanted to point out that there's a way around needing to do silly stuff like <form class=blabla>

Though in my experience, it's great in frameworks like svelte. Define your forms at the top of the component, and you can see at a glance what native actions the component can do, and where it posts to.
