+``raw_id_fields``
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+By default, Django's admin uses a select-box interface (<select>) for
+fields that are ``ForeignKey``. Sometimes you don't want to incur the
+overhead of having to select all the related instances to display in the
+drop-down.
+
+``raw_id_fields`` is a list of fields you would like to change
+into a ``Input`` widget for the primary key.
