Yes that'd be nice, for sure. I guess we'd either set errors_css in
the class meta, or as an errors_css parameter when you create the form
object? Anybody has any preference let me know I'll get a diff
together :-)
In the meantime, some of you might be interested to explicitly set
field css classes. I couldn't find a way to do it yet, so here's a
diff below. Just set css='myclass' on your fields, eg
DateField(required=false, css='vDateField'). By the way, that example
there gives you nice little date pickers a la Django admin, when
combined with a couple of their javascripts.
