Description

Here's what's necessary to be changed to show the Unicode strings of the related objects next to a ManyToMany raw_id_field. Inside file django/contrib/admin/widgets.py, change the method label_for_value() of class ManyToManyRawIdWidget to this one:

def label_for_value(self, value):
        value = [int(v) for v in value.split(',')]
        objs = self.rel.to._default_manager.filter(pk__in=value)
        return '&nbsp;<strong>%s</strong>' % ',&nbsp;'.join(truncate_words(obj, 14) for obj in objs)
