Is there an easy way to convert from the format strings the template language uses for the date filter and the strings Python's strftime method uses?
Here's where this comes up. We're pre-populating a value in a form with datetime.now() and then using form.as_table() in the template. The time is shown with microseconds which (probably rightly) won't pass validation. So we need to reformat the value we're inserting in the form. We have three date formats defined for the project--time only, short, and longer--and it would be nice to be able to use those to format anything we're sticking in a form to achieve some consistency. But to do that, we have to define two strings for each format, one for Python and one for the templating language. Or do we? Also, somewhat relatedly, how do DateFields, TimeFields, and DateTimeFields decide which format to display their contents in when you use form_for_instance?
