Not sure you can call it 'preferred' but IIRC z3c.form has been
developed with that particular use case in mind (and many others)

http://pypi.python.org/pypi?%3Aaction=search&term=z3c.form&submit=search

also gives pointers to how z3c.form is used, extended, how it is
used in Zope 2 (plone.z3cform - don't be confused by the name: this
isn't Plone specific, it's "just" contributed by the Plone community)
and to applications using it.
