what about a pair of a form- and an action-content? 

if you have a form-content which can call any page and an action-content
which can be called from any page you don't need to handle the forms on
every page and you are not restricted to handle a form on the original
page.

e.g.
you can build a complex actionhandling and can have different forms
distributed all over your site.
