Nice. We should band together and make an extended grab-bag of formfields that people would find helpful.

Good idea. Who's up for programming a djangofields.org-site? ;-)

Also, there's a small bug in this widget. Line 6 has to read

return super(CommaWidget, self).render(name, smart_str(value).replace('.', ','), attrs)

Sorry about that.
