One of the things I was hoping for in newforms but haven't found is a
way to do a composite form field that uses multiple <input> elements
that reduce to a single python object.  E.g.,

>>> class MyForm(Form):
...     postdate = CompositeField(ChoiceField(choices=['Jan', ...]),
...                               ChoiceField(choices=range(1,32)),
...                               ChoiceField(choices=range(2000,2010)))
...
>>> str(MyForm())
'<tr><td>Postdate</td><td><select name="postdate1"><option>Jan</option>'
(and so forth, with select fields for all three before closing the td/tr))

Merry Christmas! In changeset [4236], I've implemented this as
django.newforms.extras.SelectDateWidget. See the new unit tests for
example usage:

   http://code.djangoproject.com/changeset/4236

I still need to add unit tests that demonstrate how the value is split
into three HTML fields but combined into a single datetime.date object
by the widget value_from_datadict() method.
