Yes, but there is an alternative too. Very non-OOP, but Lazarus and
Delphi enforce it for form creation (and requirement by form
designer). In your unit with the TMainForm, there should be a lovely
global instance variable called MainForm that you can access from
everywhere. Also not very OOP like, all controls on the TMainForm (and
any other form created with Delphi and Lazarus) is published, so they
are globally accessible too.

All this is not what I call good OOP design, but hey, it's RAD convenience. :-/
