Has another problem:

If I have set this field readonly.

@admin.register(ModelA)
class ModelAAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):

    form = ModelAForm

    readonly_fields = ('form_field', )

    fieldsets = (
        ('Test', {
            'fields': (
                'test', 'form_field'
            )
        }),
    )

Issue is still persist if a field is readonly as described above.

As far as I'm concerned a custom form field cannot be in the readonly_fields, e.g.

<class 'admin_views.admin.ArticleAdmin'>: (admin.E035) The value of 'readonly_fields[0]' is not a callable, an attribute of 'ArticleAdmin', or an attribute of 'admin_views.Article'.

Please open a new ticket with a sample project if you believe that there is any issue with readonly_fields.
