Summary
NVP field allows you to create a field type of name/value pairs, with custom
titles and easily editable rendering with customizable HTML/text surrounding the pairs.
This allows you to easily create content blocks of with pairs within divs, list
items, data description lists, or in your own custom plain text.
In addition, customising of the titles for LHS and RHS values allows you to
customse the field to the specific field, rather than a generic "val1" and
"val2". This ensures that the values are presented in a meaningful way to the
user, when they are creating/editing content.
i.e.
<div class="nvppair name">Director</div>
<div class="nvppair value">Dylan Thomas</div>
<div class="nvppair name">Actor</div>
<div class="nvppair value">George Formby</div>
<div class="nvppair name">Producer</div>
