From what I'm seeing, the necessary changes are deep inside Kaffy.ResourceForm.build_html_input\6.

Maybe instead of passing a type and then case matching and calling html output functions, we could pass a widget which implements some behavior and that module is responsible for "rendering" the html. If there is no widget present, type could be inferred by the schema and assigned a widget by default.

There are many other use cases where custom rendering is needed. I would gladly work on something like this, but is this project alive?

@fceruti we will have widgets eventually. I realize this is an extremely late response, but if you're still interested in tackling this let me know.
