I'm so pleased to see Gutenberg Team is tackling creating Form API for WordPress core..
Forms are essential part of nearly every WordPress site, yet this key component has been left to plugins to deliver..
The result is large range of WordPress form plugins, both free & premium, with little consistency & no cross-compatability..
WordPress form users need to learn the unique approach to form creation taken by each form plugin.

I see Form API as opportunity to bring forms within Block Editor in way that is accessible & also extendable by the current crop of WordPress form plugins...
Rather by Gutenberg team, it makes sense for WordPress form plugin authors to get involved & contribute to the development of Form API for WordPress Core..
