BY the way, this has been discussed in the past and is really the wrong way to skin the cat. It's not a data modelling problem at all, so implementing a model field to do this is slightly backwards. A sensible approach is to customised the form being displayed and then customising saving on that form, etc. This is *purely* a form issue.
