Description

In a Form I want to modify the widget of a field, like

"field": django.forms.CheckboxSelectMultiple(
  attrs={
    "id": "my-id",
    "class": "foo"
    "hx-get": "/some/path/,
    "hx-target": "#target-id",
    "hx-trigger": "load",
  }
)

but it just renders

<div id="my-id" class="foo">...</div>

instead of

<div id="my-id" class="foo" hx-get="...", hx-target="...", "hx-trigger="...">...</div>

The reason seams to be, that the django/forms/widets/multiple_input.html renders only id and class

{% with id=widget.attrs.id %}<div{% if id %} id="{{ id }}"{% endif %}{% if widget.attrs.class %} class="{{ widget.attrs.class }}"{% endif %}>{% for group, options, index in widget.optgroups %}{% if group %}
