One of the things I'm looking to do, is have a table with each row being a row from the DB (Done) but with other stuff outside that table. *That's* the bit I can't see how to do, without some heavy work of using custom decorators.

Yes, but no.
You can use form decorators to adjust the markup of the Zend_Form to
exactly how you want it or even create custom Zend_Form_Elements,
which is what I did when I needed a location picker using the Google
Maps API. The possibilities are endless, albeit more difficult than
writing HTML to begin with.
