                ->addValidator('NotEmpty');

        $password = new Zend_Form_Element_Password('password');
        $password->setLabel('password')
                ->setRequired(true)
                ->addFilter('StripTags')

        $submit = new Zend_Form_Element_Submit('submit');


        $this->addElements(array($username, $password, $submit));
}

So far, so good. IMO there’s nothing to improve on this further. It renders the form and if the request is POST it validates the form against the data in the POST array.
