I was using the fastdata.DataController to do some CRUD with
User/Group/Permission data.  I was pleasantly suprised by the
configurability and the new join_widget and fk_widget.  With a little
more polish, DataController could be useful for the majority of CRUD
applications.

For the column_widget_fk_col and join_widget_related_join, the data is
displayed using unicode(object_ instance), which is ugly.  Maybe it's
just stepping stone, but I think there should be a way to specify a
column to use to display the object.  Maybe something similar to
form_order or somthing defined in sqlmeta like sqlmeta.display_field =
'name'.  I'd like to hear opinions on if and how this would be done.
