It would be nice if support for FormText would be added to RAP.

The FormText is committed in CVS HEAD.

Open issues in the implementation:
1. The FormText uses a cache to reduce a number of real layout computation. The layout calculation is a time consuming task - from 10 to 100ms. RAP uses 2 layout cycling because of TextSizeDetermination. In this case the layout is calculated in the first cycle with wrong text sizes (text estimation) and cache prevent to recalculate the layout on the next cycle with correct text determination values. To workaround this the cache is always clear before the FormText layout is done.
2. Wrong MouseEvent x, y coordinates (see bug https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=268235) lead to wrong hyperlink event.
3. Text selection is not implemented.
4. Focus transfer inside the FormText elements (hyperlinks, controls) is not checked.
