Hey Curtis, I think you're asking how this patch will help with form and field layouts? If so, not that much. It only addresses moving the widget HTML that currently is hardcoded in Python into templates.
For example, compare: https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/forms/widgets.py#L272 to the template version: https://github.com/django/django/blob/15667/django/forms/templates/django/forms/widgets/input.html It also enables easier custom widgets, like the admin clearable file input: https://github.com/django/django/blob/15667/django/contrib/admin/templates/admin/widgets/clearable_file_input.html There's nothing in this patch that would hinder further development to convert the form rendering methods, like `Form.as_p()` to be template based also, or providing better rendering methods altogether. With that said, yes the renderer class is able to be set per form class and as an argument to `Form.__init__()`.
