Besides what Toby said about why it's valid (which is correct) it's also
reasonable if you're using controls to receive user input that is going
to be used on the client side rather than for submitting to a server. An
example would be a client-side measurement or currency converter coded
in Javascript. Functionally speaking there's no need for a form since
nothing is being submitted to the server.
