A major omission from the message I just sent: this revision of the
widget implementation is based on code by Michele Cella. I've also
blended in input from David Bernard who had some proposals up on the
wiki.

A couple more things of note:

* the widget templates are much simpler (code has productively moved
into Python)

* error display is now the responsibility of the form and not the
widget (though you certainly can make widgets that include the error
display)

* most of the "form" related widgets have moved into the "newforms"
module. This represents a cleaner separation between widgets that just
display things and widgets that actually get input

* widgets that combine other widgets now have a common ancestor
(CompoundWidget) to help out. Karl Guertin had a proposal floated for
one of those, and I'm not sure if all of his ideas made it in.
