Description
>>> django.forms.Form().is_valid()
False
>>> django.forms.Form({}).is_valid()
True
>>>
The following usecase makes this a bug and unwanted behaviour:
I use session based form wizard in which user can say he has enough between the forms. Because none of the forms has any required fields, this should be doable. However it is not, as when all forms are validated, the one's that are not yet bound fail validation.
Yes, this can be and will be solved at FormWizard, but why such unexpected behaviour?

Unbound forms are never valid, as documented here: http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.1/ref/forms/api/#behavior-of-unbound-forms
