Hey Shai,
I have not had a chance to look at the implementation, but I was describing
my django-choice-object library[1] and forgot to link it!

I would be +1 on re-opening it, I've used enums for this before and I find
it much more DRY than the more 'standard' Django way. Perhaps we could
reduce some boilerplate here by somehow automatically adding the key names
to gettext?
