"Should I deliver this attachment page in a form that uses the replication
model or in a form that provides an explicit 'Add' button with server-side
postback?"
"Should I provide an input-box with an explcit JS popup calendar control, or
should I just use 'type=date'?"
"Can I rely on pattern=... to perform client-side validation, or do I need
to use client-side JavaScript?"
Admittedly, you might be able to do *both* for some of these, but some (the
second one, particularly) would benefit from a means to detect WF2 support.
