Description

Basic permissions [add, change & delete] can be assigned via a custom widget that display them in a tabular format,

model verbose_name add (check-box) change (check box) delete (check box)

This proposal would leave other custom permissions to be assigned via the currently implemented SelectMultiple, as i think it is messy to try and implement them in the table.

This way is easier when there are alot of models, and will also help with ticket #1688 (Permissions don't get translated in admin interface) as the html table will get constructed initially via the models themselves.

Thanks for raising the idea. I think it would be better to implement this as a third-party widget, at least initially. If it becomes popular enough, we could consider moving it into the admin itself. Feel free to write to the DevelopersMailingList when you have something working.
