14880	raw_id_fields in admin does not work when limit_choices_to dictionary has value=False	smallming@…	Luke Plant	"The related-lookup popup does not properly filter the queryset when the limit_choices_to dictionary has value=False. The models.py and admin.py demonstrate the problem.

[[BR]]

To reproduce:

1. Using the following models.py and admin.py, do 
{{{
Publisher(name='local', overseas=False).save()
Publisher(name='overseas', overseas=True).save()
}}}
2. Inside admin interface > add book, select related-lookup link to display popup. Only publisher ""overseas"" is available. Should display publisher ""local"" only.

Work-around: setting limit_choices_to={'overseas': 0} works, but this work-around is less intuitive than a fix.
