Custom field "label" mod
I looked through the mods and didn't see anything on this...

Is there a mod for the autogenerated forms that will allow you to define your own custom field "labels." For example, when you use the autogenerated forms, each data entry box is labeled with the field name. I'd like a little more flexability to have custom labels displayed next to the data entry box.

If I have a field named "Description" and the add page is autogenerated, the user will be presented with a text area titled "Description." I'd like to be able to enter a custom label for that field that reads "Type in the event details here" instead of just using the field name. This is just an example.

I like using the autogenerated forms because there is virtually no setup required and I don't need the forms to look nice (not that they don't). However, it would be nice to be able to define custom labels in the cfg file to add that extra custom look.
