29107	Document that ModelForm isn't actually a subclass of Form	Haydar Al-Rikabi	nobody	"In the [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/topics/forms/#more-about-django-form-classes Django docs], I've read the following statement:
**All form classes are created as subclasses of django.forms.Form, including the ModelForm, which you encounter in Django’s admin.**
\\
I believe that the above statement is wrong because  as the Django project on Github does not show that ModelForm is a subclass of django.forms.Form. 
\\
in /django/forms/models.py the class ModelForm is subclass of BaseModelForm which is also a subclass of BaseForm (located in /django/forms/forms.py).
in /django/forms/forms.py the class Form is a subclass of BaseForm.
\\
So, as you can see, both django.forms.Form and django.forms.ModelForm are subclasses of BaseForm, but ModelForm is not a subclass of Form as the docs state."	Bug	closed	Documentation	2.0	Normal	fixed	ModelForm, Form, subclass		Accepted	1	0	0	0	0	0
