Comment:
I've also run into this problem.
My situation is that I have the same model appearing in `list_display` and
`list_filter` but through different relationships. `List_display` is
showing the current supplier whereas `list_filter` can be used to find all
items supplied by a specified supplier in the past.
This creates an issue where I have a column named "supplier" and a filter
named "supplier" but the filter is not the same as the column. To clarify
this I wanted to create a `SimpleListFilter` and set the `title` attribute
to something more descriptive but this raises a `SuspiciousOperation` and
as far as I can tell there is no other way to change the display title for
filters.
If this is to be considered a feature and not a bug then the documentation
needs to be clarified. Julien says that the documentation states that the
first element must be a "field name", but two bullet points up the docs
call `company__name` a "field name".
