14638	to_python howto documentation improvement	Miguel Araujo	nobody	"Reading this: 
[http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/custom-model-fields/#django.db.models.to_python]

Anyone would think that to_python is a model method in charge of converting a value extracted from a DB to a python type. Beforehand in the documentation there is a way better explanation of this method. 

[http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/howto/custom-model-fields/#modelforms-and-custom-fields]

I honestly think it should be redone, I lost ages trying to figure out what this method was for. 

Thanks, regards
