New description:
For `verbose_name_plural` option in django Model Meta, django currently
appends "s" when `verbose_name` is defined and `verbose_name_plural` is
not.
However, I think that supporting auto-suffixing for irregular plurals,
such as `categories`, would be good idea.
Since there exists countless irregular English plurals, rather than
including whole dictionary of all English plurals, I thought at first,
adding support for common rules of forming plurals would be decent idea.
For instance:
- adding 'es' support,
- adding support for nouns ending with 'y'
- etc.

I'm not sure about the link above is appropriate reference, but I couldn't
find much better one.
