Hello Adrian,
Correct. Fields defined as attributes on a subclass do not get added. Use __init__() in the subclass to append to the self.fields dictionary, as Jeff suggested.
Great.. That's a quick solution.
Note that this behavior is up for discussion if many people find it inconvenient. My initial thought is that it's a bit unbalanced to allow for the definition of extra fields in a subclass but not allowing the *removal* of fields in the same way. But you're not the first person who's tried to do this, so there's something intuitive about just subclassing a form and specifying some more fields as class attributes...
If you say more people have tried it (without reading this before ;-)) I would think the intuitive way is definitely the way to go.
When subclassing in general adding<->removing is quite imbalanced isn't it? I wouldn't know how to remove a member variable or member function from a base class (without looking into the python docs), but I sure know how to add more.
