Guys,,
Been thinking of this weird module idea :P

Easy form Alter,

In all of my projects i would have to write atlest one module that does a lot of form alters.
And even though its fun writing the method. its tough to manage an extra module

How abuot a plug in module that will help u do form alterations easily

Should be like
1. Give the id of the form.
2. The form gets generated and you can alter its elements and its properties and so on

what you think. Pour in your ideas!

My two cents :

I like the idea of "easy" form alter. but every time i use this hook, it's because i need a lot of if and switch statements. Is there an easy way to deal with conditions with a UI. it might gt ugly ;)

Also i found this,
http://drupal.org/project/form_alter_ui (we could give a hand here)

or this
http://drupal.org/project/form_alter (we could take over this module)

Let me know. Would love to help. (I've seen your weird ideas turn to great ideas too many times.)
