Add a more friendly widget for HStoreField

[gam_phon]

Creating a new widget for HStoreField to be used and to be friendly.

Example, which django-hstore is using in the admin :

I think it is good to consider. right now it is a textarea and you should write the value in dictionary format.

Thanks

Marc, your thoughts on this?

A good admin widget for HStore, as with ArrayField would be good. Both require javascript, which is less of a problem now we can test it.

In django-hstore I think you have to customise the widget yourself, it may be nice if there was a way to extend the admin site to choose a different form field/widget automatically, but this may be unnecessary and is a more difficult problem to solve.

We can't easily include django-hstore's widget directly as it uses underscore templating.

I ran into this recently, and found django-hstore's widget a trivial drop in that did the job.

I'm happy to work on re-engineering it to remove the other dependencies, if nobody objects.

So is this feature would be really nice. But judging by the lack of activity, should I assume it's dead?

As I recall, FunkyBob got discouraged at the lack of feedback on the ​django-developers thread.
