Comment (by David Smith):
I think we need to be mindful of ticket #31026 and the associated
[https://github.com/django/django/pull/12133 pr] which moves forms to a
template render. For items such as labels they will be able to be
customised via overriding a temple, which could be enough here?
For widgets, there is already the ability to over ride templates, and if
you want to go futher I find that a boundfield's `subwidgets` usually has
the information needed to render each widget. For example, it can include
`selected` and built `attrs`. It's not clear from your ticket what extra
context you would need that is only available via django rendering?
Here's an example of the information available in a subwidget.
│ choice_label = 1
│ data = {
│ 'name': 'checkbox_select_multiple',
│ 'value': 1,
│ 'label': 1,
│ 'selected': True,
│ 'index': '0',
│ 'attrs': {'id': 'id_checkbox_select_multiple_0',
'checked': True},
│ 'type': 'checkbox',
│ 'template_name':
'django/forms/widgets/checkbox_option.html',
│ 'wrap_label': True
│ }
│ id_for_label = 'id_checkbox_select_multiple_0'
