Comment (by carljm):
FWIW, I think this patch would be a positive improvement. It makes common
customization cases simpler, and avoids the error-prone alternative of
overriding the field entirely and the extra-boilerplate alternative of
overriding `__init__` and patching fields there. I also think the supplied
new customization points are very similar in nature to the existing
`Meta.widgets`, and it's an odd inconsistency to have one but not the
others. What argument is there for `Meta.widgets` that does not apply
equally to labels, help texts, and error messages?
In other words, if you decide to bring it up on django-developers, I am +1
for the change.
