The "Save and ..." buttons in the admin panel stopped working

Hello! The test was done on an empty project. Actually, I did not understand at what point the problem occurs, but I will try to give enough data, maybe it will help.

I noticed a problem in my new project and at first I thought that some library could not work correctly with the new version of django. Then I created an empty project and the problem happened again, BUT! This problem does not always appear. I don't know exactly when, but two points that sometimes triggered it:

1. Clear cache (ctrl+f5)
2. Deleting rows in the same table

In the developer console, I noticed that when submitting the form, only the token and group name are sent, but the permissions and the button name were not sent. This is probably why it does not save the resolution and the behavior changes when saving.

The same problem was observed in the version of django 4.0, but there this problem manifested itself less

Let me know what other information to provide?

Might be related to #33893, do you have the opportunity to test with the tip of the stable/4.1.x Django branch?

Replying to Claude Paroz:

Indeed, I did not find the problem on the proposed branch. At least with several tests everything was in order. I'm really looking forward to the new version! Because I edit some of the data through the admin panel and this is a rather unpleasant phenomenon. Thank you for your work!

Maxim, thanks for the confirmation.
