Comment (by Petr Marhoun <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>):

 I don't understand I didn't think about it. (My applications are only
 bilingual, but German is the most probable third language). So my solution
 is bad but opposite approach should work - to use "uncapfirst" expressions
 for labels.

 I think there are two orthogonal problems:
  1. It should be possible to use the same format in models and forms -
 django.contrib.admin and some utility functions in core should transform
 it to the right format.
  2. The transformation function should work for all languages, not only
 for most of them.

 I will try to solve point one. I want to change my verbose_name and labels
 to have first letter low and to fix all problems with capfirst.

 The second idea (to replace capfirst with something better) is quite
 ambitious. I don't think that django supports localized functions and
 filters. Maybe mir should post to django-i18n - for me the current task is
 patch for problem one.
