I dynamically construct forms using the c: tags. These allow you to manipulate the JSF component tree and dyanically select uicomponents to include based on your application metadata. You can't do this using tags like ui:repeat which don't change the component tree. The downside of using the c: tags is that the interactions between them and the rest of the page can get really confusing, and you end up working fairly close to the JSF lifecycle machinery during debugging.
