This is missing a lot of parts, so it doesn't really make any real-world form submission work yet. It provides a skeleton on which the missing bits can be filled in.
What works:
- `<input>` elements except for `type=file`
- GET/POST methods
- URLencoded `enctype`s (default)
- Submission via `<form>.submit()` only
Stuff that needs to be done for most simple real-world cases to work:
- [Working text input](https://github.com/servo/servo/pull/3585)
- Click handlers for `<submit>`
- Possibly `<textarea>` support
- Support for the other two enctypes (#3649)
Todo:
- Correctly implement [planned navigation](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/forms.html#planned-navigation) using `TrustedFormAddress` (#3648)
- [Correctly implement form owners.](https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/3553) Requires html5ever and some discussion of the spec.
- `<input type=file>` support
- Image submit support
- Browsing contexts/targets
- Support for non-`<input>` controls
- Validation (?)
- Dirname (?)

So far the changes to layout seem fairly well-contained; I think this is worth integrating to give us a browser that is easier to dogfood (and allows us to work on things like form submission much easier), especially since the long-term viability of WebComponents-as-forms is not assured.
