Looks good to me, just need to build up the comments.  If it's of any
use to you, here is an attempt at a nice user-friendly description of
hook_elements.


"Form elements are already familiar to anyone who uses Forms API.
Examples of core form elements are 'textfield', 'checkbox' and
'fieldset'. Drupal utilizes hook_elements() to define these FAPI types,
and this occurs in the core function system_elements().


By implementing hook_elements in your own module, you can create custom
form elements with their own properties, validation and theming."

I've added example_element.module [1] to demonstrate how to create a new
form item #type. I'd love some reviews.
