29153	add label attrs to BaseForm	Christoph	nobody	"Goal:
Add attributes like ""class"" to the label tag for inputs.

Problem:
Actually the only thing thats stops me from using {{ form }} is the incapability to change classes for labels easily. So i have to do it like this, for every form and every field:

{{{
{{ form.non_field_errors }}
<div class=""fieldWrapper"">
    {{ form.subject.errors }}
    <label for=""{{ form.subject.id_for_label }}"" class=""MY-CUSTOM-CLASS"">Email subject:</label>
    {{ form.subject }}
</div>

}}}

Where it should be changed:
I would be fine if the label_attrs could be set in BaseForm(), but i think the right place would be class Field

As the label_tag is already set up to give the label class attributes and label_suffix, it is quite easy to add this to the BaseForm _html_output() 

{{{
class BoundField:
    def label_tag(self, contents=None, attrs=None, label_suffix=None):
}}}


{{{
class BaseForm:
    def _html_output(self, normal_row, error_row, row_ender, help_text_html, errors_on_separate_row):
        # ...
        label = bf.label_tag(label) or ''
}}}
