Is there a nice pattern for dealing with lots of input fields in elm?

Is there a pattern in elm for avoiding writing lots of messages just to update individual fields on child elements of your model?

At the moment I'm ending up with code as below, with a message for every input that changes and then a bunch of update logic for each field. What I would like to do is have a message like AChanged that handled all the changes to any property of A. Either by updating the record in a function that generates the message or by passing in a field name and then using that to directly perform an update on the record as you could in Javascript.

module Main exposing (Model)

import Browser exposing (Document, UrlRequest)
import Browser.Navigation as Nav exposing (Key)
import Html exposing (div, input)
import Html.Events exposing (onInput)
import Url exposing (Url)


type alias A =
    { a : String
    , b : String
    , c : String
    , d : String
    }


type alias B =
    { e : String
    , f : String
    , g : String
    , h : String
    }


type alias Model =
    { key : Nav.Key
    , url : Url.Url
    , a : A
    , b : B
    }


type Msg
    = UrlChanged Url.Url
    | LinkClicked Browser.UrlRequest
    | AaChanged String
    | AbChanged String
    | AcChanged String
    | AdChanged String
    | BeChanged String
    | BfChanged String
    | BgChanged String
    | BhChanged String


init : () -> Url.Url -> Nav.Key -> ( Model, Cmd Msg )
init flag url key =
    ( Model key url (A "" "" "" "") (B "" "" "" ""), Cmd.none )


subscriptions : Model -> Sub Msg
subscriptions _ =
    Sub.none


view : Model -> Document msg
view model =
    { title = "Mister Mandarin"
    , body =
        div
            [ input [ onInput AaChanged ] []
            , input [ onInput AbChanged ] []
            , input [ onInput AcChanged ] []
            , input [ onInput AdChanged ] []
            , input [ onInput BeChanged ] []
            , input [ onInput BfChanged ] []
            , input [ onInput BgChanged ] []
            , input [ onInput BhChanged ] []
            ]
            []
    }

            )

main : Program () Model Msg
main =
    Browser.application
        { init = init
        , view = view

I've taken two vastly different approaches for this problem. The one that gives you the most control (while still helping eliminate verbosity) is to move your logic from the Update to your View with a generalized Msg. Something like: UpdateForm (String -> Model) or UpdateForm (String -> FormModel).

The other approach is to move away from storing input state in your model at all. This has the downside of not allowing you to do things like initialize your inputs or clear them easily. But it's great as a quick and dirty approach to getting basic forms out. In this method, you leverage the fact that input elements with a name attribute become properties of the parent form element¹. You can attach a decoder to the form's onSubmit and get the value through Decode.at ["ab", "value"].
