Symfony2: Delete entity through post request (improvements required) - forms

Question

I need some improvements about my actual way to delete entities:
public function deleteAction($path)
{
$form = $this->createFormBuilder(array('path' => $path))
->add('path')
->setReadOnly(true)
->getForm();
if ($this->getRequest()->getMethod() === 'POST') {
$form->bindRequest($this->getRequest());
if ($form->isValid()) {
$image = $this->getImageManager()->findImageByPath($path);
$this->getImageManager()->deleteImage($image);
return $this->redirect($this->generateUrl('AcmeImageBundle_Image_index'));
}
}
return $this->render('AcmeImageBundle:Image:delete.html.twig', array(
'form' => $form->createView(),
));
}
Two improvements I already found while writting:
CreateFormBuilder in extra method in controller
Hidden field and overgive extra image-entity to get rendered
Are there other thing I could make better?

(my answer is too long for the comment so i add it here)
First you have to create a Type file (generally in YourApp\YourBundle\Form\yourHandler.php), some basique code to put inside if you don't know:
<?php
namespace ***\****Bundle\Form;
use Symfony\Component\Form\Form;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Doctrine\ORM\EntityManager;
use ***\****Bundle\Entity\your_entity;
class *****Handler
{
protected $form;
protected $request;
protected $em;
public function __construct(Form $form, Request $request, EntityManager $em)
{
$this->form = $form;
$this->request = $request;
$this->em = $em;
}
public function process()
{
if( $this->request->getMethod() == 'POST' )
{
$this->form->bindRequest($this->request);
if( $this->form->isValid() )
{
$this->onSuccess($this->form->getData());
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
public function onSuccess(your_entity $object)
{
// Make your stuff here (remove,....)
}
}
And in your controller i just call it this way:
if (!empty($_POST))
{
$formHandler = new *****Handler($my_form, $this->get('request'), $this->getDoctrine()->getEntityManager());
$formHandler->process();
}
Hope i'm clear enough
