29120	Admin autocomplete requires change permission	Rodrigo Pinheiro Marques de Araújo	nobody	"

In django's admin a form can list all related objects without permission need. In the example above, Model B's form if using a ModelChoiceField is possible to lista all A objects. But using a autocomplete field requires change permission to find ""A"" objects. This different behavior force admin's user to give a different level of permission to your users. To fix this in the AutocompleteView the only permission required should  be a logged user and staff member.
