#10781: Wrong way to style forms demonstrated in docs

The docs has the following example:
{{{
<form action="/contact/" method="POST">
{% for field in form.visible_fields %}
<div class="fieldWrapper">
{# Include the hidden fields in the form #}
{% if forloop.first %}
{% for hidden in form.hidden_fields %}
{{ hidden }}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
{{ field.errors }}
{{ field.label_tag }}: {{ field }}
</div>
{% endfor %}
<p><input type="submit" value="Send message" /></p>
</form>
}}}
This has the nasty side effect of not printing out the hidden variables if
there are no non-hidden variables, in addition to making the code
needlessly complex. This should be changed to:
{{{
<form action="/contact/" method="POST">
{% for field in form.visible_fields %}
<div class="fieldWrapper">
{{ field.errors }}
{{ field.label_tag }}: {{ field }}
</div>
{% endfor %}
{# Include the hidden fields in the form #}
{% for hidden in form.hidden_fields %}
{{ hidden }}
{% endfor %}
<p><input type="submit" value="Send message" /></p>
</form>
}}}
