Comment:
This has been fixed and discussed in
https://github.com/django/django/pull/141
A copy of the commit:
There was an inconsistency between how the label_tag for forms were
generated depending on which method was used: as_p, as_ul and as_table
contained code to append the label_suffix where as label_tag called on a
form field directly did NOT append the label_suffix. The code for
appending the label_suffix has been moved in to the label_tag code of
the field and the HTML generation code for as_p, as_ul and as_table now
calls this code as well. CAUTION: This may be be "backwards incompatible
change" because users who have added the label_suffix manually in their
templates may now get double label_suffix characters in their forms.
Also some test cases regarding the label_tag output were inconsistent.
Some expected Label: and some expected the label_suffix
outside of the tag: Label:
The format has now been unified to keep the label_suffix inside the
tag: Label:. If the label_suffix is not needed,
the form can still be constructed with label_suffix=''.
