Does anyone know if it is possible to use forms in the html output window when running a command?
It should be. You'd need to have the FORM post to a javascript, and that script can run normal shell commands via the TextMate.system() method, which mimic that of Dashboard: http://developer.apple.com/ documentation/AppleApplications/Conceptual/Dashboard_Tutorial/Scripts/ chapter_12_section_1.html
The Ruby -> Documentation for Word uses TextMate.system() to call rdoc to get further information (when user clicks a link).
On the bundle repository, there's also Clock [1] in the experimental bundle which starts/stops a process from the HTML output.
In addition to TextMate.system you can also control the progress indicator in the upper right corner using: TextMate.isBusy = true/false.
