radio_admin doesn't appear to work

[dustin@…]

I posted this to the groups, but didn't get a response. Perhaps nobody uses radio_admin. I have a need to display my many-to-many as a list of checkboxes...both in the admin UI and user forms.

I've done the following:

        meta.ManyToManyField(DayToHelp, radio_admin=True,
            blank=True, null=True),

yet, I get a select list everywhere I try to reference that field.

Should I expect this to work for user forms, too?

The current way would *almost* not be a problem, as I can just do this
in my form:

  <ul style="list-style: none;" id="daystohelp">
    {% for choice in form.manipulator.daytohelps.choices %}
      <li>
        <input type="checkbox" name="daytohelps" value="{{ choice.0 }}"/>
        {{ choice.1 }}
      </li>
    {% endfor %}
  </ul>

However, it doesn't retain the selection when there's an error like it
does for the rest of the fields.

radio_admin=True applies to the admin, not to any custom code that you might write.
