While it's certainly easier to do in Dabo, I tend to be lazy. If I have to add dozens of controls with the same changes across many forms, I'd rather define the subclass once and then use that in all my forms.

I prefer the properties parameter rather than the ** form:

hs.append(dabo.ui.dTextBox(self, DataField="name", properties=dataCtrlProps))

They both work the same, but that's what that parameter was created for.
