Comment (by mail@…): I agree with the contributor: when verbose_name is explicitely set it should at least be possible to disable automatic capitalisation. I have an verbose_name label that reads something like this "xABC". The lowercased x in the Acronym is semantically relevant. Auto-capitalization destroys that. Hopefully there's an easy, and consistent way to override that behavior. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/18129#comment:4> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
