      Description

      Some widgets, especially list and complex widgets, are often rewritten to be able to
      control the overall presentation of the list/map of values presented.

      The default list widget currently presents a table, using one row per subwidget, the
      first column presenting the subwidget label, and the second on the subwidget value
      or input (in edit mode). There should be options (widget properties would be
      enough) to:

      • get rid of the first column presenting the label, especially when there is only one
        subwidget (for a list of names for instance)
      • present widget labels as table headers, instead of using the first column for that
      • present joined values as one text (values joined by a special character ",",
        finished by another character or message "# {messages['label.and']}

        for
        instance).

      • add divs that may help with CSS styling of the page.

      The same configurability could be added to complex widgets (presenting maps, and
      currently using a rendering similar to the list widget).

      There is also a bug happening when all widgets of a row are "hidden": the row is still
      rendered, which makes it possible to break rendering (needs to be verified and
      selenium tested).
