Description
ModelChoiceField gets queryset as an init argument and uses ModelChoiceIterator for populating choices. Iterator than calls queryset.all() which makes an unnecessary clone of QS - making its cached data go away and issuing new database query if a queryset has been evaluated before.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
This is by design. If a new clone isn't made, then the choices would never change after a form class has been created.
