Regroups a list of alike objects by a common attribute.
This complex tag is best illustrated by use of an example: say that
``people`` is a list of ``Person`` objects that have ``first_name``,
``last_name``, and ``gender`` attributes, and you'd like to display a list
that looks like:
This complex tag is best illustrated by use of an example: say that
``musicians`` is a list of ``Musician`` objects that have ``name`` and
``instrument`` attributes, and you'd like to display a list that
looks like:

* George Bush

* Margaret Thatcher
* Colendeeza Rice
* Unknown:

* Django Reinhardt

The following snippet of template code would accomplish this dubious task::
{% regroup people by gender as grouped %}
{% regroup musicians by instrument as grouped %}
<ul>
{% for group in grouped %}
<li>{{ group.grouper }}
<ul>
{% for item in group.list %}
<li>{{ item }}</li>
{% for musician in group.list %}
<li>{{ musician.name }}</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
As you can see, ``{% regroup %}`` populates a variable with a list of
objects with ``grouper`` and ``list`` attributes. ``grouper`` contains the
objects with ``grouper`` and ``list`` attributes. ``grouper`` contains the
item that was grouped by; ``list`` contains the list of objects that share
that ``grouper``. In this case, ``grouper`` would be ``Male``, ``Female``
and ``Unknown``, and ``list`` is the list of people with those genders.
that ``grouper``. In this case, ``grouper`` would be ``Guitar``, ``Piano``
and ``Trumpet``, and ``list`` is the list of musicians who play this
instrument.
Note that ``{% regroup %}`` does not work when the list to be grouped is not
sorted by the key you are grouping by! This means that if your list of
people was not sorted by gender, you'd need to make sure it is sorted
sorted by the key you are grouping by! This means that if your list of
musicians was not sorted by instrument, you'd need to make sure it is sorted
before using it, i.e.::
{% regroup people|dictsort:"gender" by gender as grouped %}
{% regroup musicians|dictsort:"instrument" by instrument as grouped %}
