Description
In the case where the wizard author might like to populate the form with an existing model instance or formset from a queryset based through get_form_kwargs
it get's destroyed by a call to kwargs.update({'instance': self.get_form_instance(step)})
or kwargs.update({'queryset': self.get_form_instance(step)})
.
While I can appreciate that there is already a way to populate this value by overloading the get_form_instance
method, I don't think that we should be destructive of another way to achieve it. Additionally I find it less confusing if I can define all kwargs to be passed to my form/formset init method in one place (ie. in get_form_kwargs
) rather than splitting this logic into two places.
I've attached a patch against r17511 which includes a test case.
