Description (last modified by Tim Graham)

They are only required if the form class used consists of nothing but checkbox fields. Dealing with management forms makes it unnecessarily hard to dynamically alter the list of forms in front-end and forgetting to render one will result in the FormSet.__init__() raising an exception.

I've ​submitted a discussion to the mailing list but I'm creating a ticket here to provide a pull request for people to play with to make an informed decision.
