2409	Call model methods on object from admin interface	Rudolph Froger	Adrian Holovaty	"It would be really nice if you could add buttons to the admin interface of an object. A click on the button calls the corresponding model method:


{{{
class Subscriber(models.Model):
    name = models.CharField('name', maxlength=40)

    def send_invoice(self):
        """"""Sends invoice by e-mail to subscriber.""""""
        pass

    class Admin:
        actions = (('send_invoice', _('Send invoice')),)
}}}

This would create a button with the text 'Send invoice' in the admin interface of the object. The ""actions"" syntax should probably also allow passing arguments to the method.
