This is a successor to #29490 and a result of the discussion on #22298 and
[https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/rejuvenating-vs-deprecating-form-
media/21285 its corresponding forum thread].
This ticket aims to move object-based media assets to the public API and
documentation.
A sample implementation has been part of the test suite for years, see
also:
https://github.com/django/django/blob/97a6a678c406b0049bd17bcd34f1d71d96141994/tests/forms_tests/tests/test_media.py#L717-L771
The goal is to support form assets with modern attributes, like:
{{{
<script type="module">
<!-- or -->
<script defer>
<!-- or -->
<script async>
}}}
And other standardized attributes, see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-
US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/script
The same can be done for stylesheets via the link tag, which does support
many more attributes than `media`, see also: https://developer.mozilla.org
/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/link
**Considerations**
We could deprecate "string" based assets. This may simplify `django.forms`
since, the CSS grouping wouldn't be needed anymore.
