Comment (by merb):
Wouldn't it be better to rewrite
{{{
class ErrorDict(dict)
}}}
and add as_json or as_dict?
Currently it has as_text and as_ul
This is how the ErrorDict got returned, so a simple
{{{
@property
def errors(self):
"Returns an ErrorDict for the data provided for the form"
if self._errors is None:
self.full_clean()
return self._errors
}}}
The next snippet would call the json.dumps of the error dict.
{{{
print json.dumps(form.errors.as_dict())
}}}
I apped a patch that would do the following. If this is wished we only
need a small test.
