Pagetree's auto-generated <form> tag has a few problems preventing me from using it with the goal forms: * After submitting an invalid form, Pagetree's Submit button disappears, preventing the user from being able to submit the form again. * The "change my answers" form isn't compatible with formsets. See ccnmtl/django-pagetree#58 My solution is to again have the pageblock render its own <form>. This necessitates an unfortunate hack: hiding pagetree's Submit button with JavaScript. This is one of the reasons I think needs_submit should be broken out into two different configurable params: Something like `handles_post_data` and `renders_form`.

We need to come up with a way to better customize pageblock forms. If you create a custom pageblock that needs to handle POST data, but you need to render your own Submit button(s) for (and possible your own
<form>), there's no clear method to doing this. In the past, Susan has resorted to using JavaScript to make interface changes to custom PageBlock's forms, which shouldn't be necessary.See discussion here:
