Ah, missed this in the first e-mail. There was an effort to do this,
but failed miserably. It may be revisited again, but IMO providing a
declarative syntax to everything in the world doesn't fix the world ;)
It simply would provide a better API for users which I understand is
good. However, the factory function do provide functionality in places
where things need to be dynamic. The admin relies on them heavily. If
in any event we do go about a declarative syntax it would need to be a
subset of the factories. However, right now I am -0 on introducing
them since to me adds cruft to formsets. At any rate it would
certainly be a post-1.0 if we did decide to so something.
