  """Prints a newforms field as a table row.

  This function actually does very little, simply passing the supplied
  form field instance in a simple context used by the _field_as_table_row.html
  template (which is actually doing all of the work).

  See soc/templates/soc/templatetags/_field_as_table_row.html for the CSS
  styles used by this template tag.

  Usage:
    {% load forms_helpers %}
    ...
    <table>
     {% field_as_table_row form.fieldname %}
     ...
    </table>

  Args:
    field: a Django newforms field instance

  Returns:
    a simple context containing the supplied newforms field instance:
      { 'field': field }
  """
  return {'field': field}
