+I've been looking into this.  I'd like to implement a "blogcomments"
+plugin.  Looking at the code, I think the way to go is to have a
+formbuilder_setup hook that uses a different template instead of the
+standard editpage one.  That template would not display the editcontent
+field.  The problem that I'm running into is that I need to append the new
+content to the old one.
