Comment (by Petr Marhoun <petr.marh...@gmail.com>):
Added new series of patches. They are based on previous ones, description
on wiki page, forms-utils and discussion in django-developers:
* http://code.djangoproject.com/wiki/ImprovementsForDjangoForms#Fieldsets
* http://bitbucket.org/carljm/django-form-
utils/src/tip/form_utils/forms.py
* http://groups.google.com/group/django-
developers/browse_thread/thread/37e1e8b8313c38de
Description of individual patches follows:
Patch 01-move-fields-and-exclude.diff: This patch moves meta attributes
"fields" and "exclude" from !ModelForm to Form. It is the most complex
patch.
There are some changes which could be bug fixes or backward
incompatibilities:
* Attributes "fields" and "exclude" apply also for fields defined on
!ModelForm. It solves (accepted) ticket #8620.
* With multiply inheritance fields are sorted by method resolution order,
not by a custom way. I think it is the right approach (and it simplifies
code) but I am prepared to change it back.
I also do not know if some classes and methods are part of public API. I
reworked django.forms.forms.get_declared_fields and renamed
django.forms.forms.!DeclarativeFieldsMetaclass to !FormMetaclass (it makes
more things after the change). I also stop using parameters "fields" and
"exclude" of django.forms.models.fields_for_model but this method is
exported from this module so I do not change it.
