{{ SomeModel.get_field_display }} is nice, but it is handy only for a
specified field.
If One wants to write a more universal template which should work with any
set of fields, this won't work.
What I propose is a universal filter which should provide human-readable
name for a field of any type.
For example, like this:
<table>
{% for item in query %}
<tr>
{% for field in fields %}
<td>{{item|human_readable:field}}</td>
{% endfor %}
</tr>
{% endfor %}
<table>
This will be a simple yet powerful way to create nice human-readable
tables from Django models and forms.
