Comment:
There's nothing to suggest it should behave like this. You're hoping it
might, but it isn't really worth the extra code when there's already a way
to set the title. When you use a function in the `list_display` list it
uses the `short_description` attribute on the function for the title,
otherwise a reasonable default is used. This is documented and the
versions of `get_FIELD_display()` created automatically are no different
int his respect.
