If I recall correctly, this happens when there are no errors to
display. I seem to recall reading that the Errors decorator was not
intended for forms, but only for form elements; the FormErrors
decorator was added specifically for forms.
I would like to see the error fixed, though. FormErrors seems to exist
to give developers the option to display all errors with the form in a
single location in the document instead of interspersed with the form
elements. The few times I have tried to apply the Errors decorator to
the form itself were because I wanted to display error messages that
were not related to a specific element on the form while maintaining
the interspersed error messages for errors related to individual
fields. In those cases, my workaround was to only add the Errors
decorator to the form after a call to $form->addError(...) to prevent
the warning message.
if (....error condition....) {
$form->addError('Some error message');
$form->addDecorator('Errors', array('placement' => 'prepend'));
}
