Comment (by arne):
Using 9958.diff solves a different problem than my original patch
comments.diff. With the approach in 9958.diff neither inheriting from
!BaseCommentForm nor inheriting from !CommentForm allows for easy
customization of the fields the form uses.
Please consider that not every projects needs a comment form with the
fields "name", "email", "url" and "comment". Sometimes "name" and
"comment" may be enough and 9958.diff gives no form-class from which I can
inherit to cleanly build my own comment form with less fields than the
original !CommentForm. I feel like overriding !__init!__() and using del
to delete form-fields is not a clean solution.
Using an approach like in comments.diff one can either subclass
!BaseCommentForm to customize the fields the form has and use all the
existing Spam-protection logic or could use a completly other form
(inheriting form forms.Form) to circumvent the Spam-protection as
thejaswi_puthraya pointed out and the ability to customize the fields.
