form.rs

1//! Phase B, the forms half: [`makeover_layout::Field`] rendered to HTML.
2//!
3//! # Why this emits strings
4//!
5//! Both webview apps build their markup as strings and hand it to `innerHTML`:
6//! goingson's `renderFormField` returns a template literal that fifteen call
7//! sites interpolate into larger literals, and Balanced Breakfast's builds
8//! nodes but appends them into the same string-built forms. Returning nodes
9//! would rewrite the surrounding templates as well, which makes it a migration
10//! rather than an adoption. So: strings, and the escaping comes with them.
11//!
12//! # Why one escaper is enough here
13//!
14//! goingson carries four escapers and 543 call sites that must pick between
15//! them, because `escapeHtml` is built on `textContent` serialization and
16//! **`textContent` refuses to encode `"`**. That is what makes it unsound in an
17//! attribute, and it is the whole reason the choice exists. Its `escape.js`
18//! records the finding as the CHRONIC-XSS seal, and its test suite has a gate
19//! keeping the unsafe one off the namespace.
20//!
21//! [`escape`] here is not built on that, so it encodes the quote along with
22//! everything else, which makes one function sound in both sinks. The four-way
23//! choice does not move into Rust: it disappears. Nothing in this module hands
24//! an unescaped value to the output except through [`Markup`], which a caller
25//! has to name.
26//!
27//! # What the description does not carry
28//!
29//! [`Field`] describes the field and not its contents, so three things arrive
30//! from the renderer side in [`Filling`]: the current value, the options of a
31//! select, and the placeholder. The first two are genuinely renderer state. The
32//! third is user-facing text and belongs with `label` and `hint` in
33//! makeover-layout; it lives here because that crate is published and adding a
34//! field to `Field` is a breaking change, not because this is its home.
