Added order parameter to constructor of db.models.Field class, that specifies ordering of choices list.
Ordering is performed after translation, so localized lists are ordered correctly.

The ordering was tested successfully both on CharField with choices and ForeignKey field.

Discussion with Carl: sorting choices for display is not a model-level concern, it is a form-level concern and this solves it at the right level. the right solution is for forms that want to display choices in a different order to override init and resort their field's choices.
