Description
In the admin (not newforms-admin) and therefor, in old forms, fields with choices set get dropdowns whose first item is "--------" indicating "not selected".
This appears even when the field has blank=True, and it is always an error to select the "---------" option.
Note:
See TracTickets
for help on using tickets.
That's by design, so that the first option isn't just implicitly selected. Even if this was to change, it's not going to change in old-admin.
If you want to discuss this then I suggest bringing it up in the django-dev Google group.
