You could try not using the FormsTemplateTransformer...

Just add this to your form template:

   <jx:import 
uri="resource://org/apache/cocoon/forms/generation/jx-macros.xml"/>

...and remove the FTT <transform> from your sitemap.

It looks like this will do what you want.

The "strictening" of FFT looks like it was done in a change that has 
this message in the commit log:

	Remove (buggy) support for arbitrary elements within ft:widget.

So apparently, the functionality was removed because it was buggy and 
it wasn't felt that fixing it was practical.

HTH,
