Add tooltips style display of help_text, instead of widening the form with another (often ridiculously large) column. Also, version the .css and .js files so that browsers won't display the wrong cached one when we change something. Patch by: Dmitri Gaskin, Todd Larsen Review by: Todd Larsen

class User(base.ModelWithFieldAttributes):
  """A user and associated login credentials, the fundamental identity entity.

  User is a separate Model class from Person because the same login 
  ID may be used to, for example, serve as Contributor in one Program 
  and a Reviewer in another.

  Also, this allows a Person to, in the future, re-associate that 
  Person entity with a different Google Account if necessary.

  A User entity participates in the following relationships implemented 
  as a db.ReferenceProperty elsewhere in another db.Model:

   persons)  a 1:many relationship of Person entities identified by the
     User.  This relation is implemented as the 'persons' back-reference
     Query of the Person model 'user' reference.
     
   documents)  a 1:many relationship of Document entities identified by the
     User.  This relation is implemented as the 'user' back-reference
     Query of the Document model 'user' reference.

   groups)  a 1:many relationship of Group entities "founded" by the User.
     This relation is implemented as the 'groups' back-reference Query of
     the Group model 'founder' reference.

   responses)  a 1:many relationship of Reponse entities submitted by the
     User.  This relation is implemented as the 'responses' back-reference
     Query of the Response model 'respondent' reference.
