1132	[patch] CurrentUserField and manipulator changes	jkocherhans <jkocherhans@…>	Adrian Holovaty	"This isn't as high level as I would like, but it works. It's also still usable without access to a request object as well. It feels like a hack to me, but no more so than DateField's auto_now and auto_add_now. I played around with using events, and even with RuleDispatch, but this was the simplest change that worked. It doesn't work for inline objects yet though. I figured I'd get some feedback before I waste my time. Here's how to use it:

{{{
class Article(meta.Model):
    title = meta.CharField(maxlength=100)
    body = meta.TextField()
    added_by = meta.CurrentUserField(update_on_edit=False) # only save the current user in add_stage
    edited_by = meta.CurrentUserField() # update_on_edit defaults to True
