Comment (by coredumperror):
Yeah, that would suck. You'd basically need to define models.URLField2 and
forms.URLField2 (or something like that). Though, from my cursory reading
of the API Stability page, this seems like a viable "Backwards
incompatible change" for a minor version release. It's such a tiny
difference.
I wonder if it would be worthwhile, at least, to mention the bug and
workaround for it in the docs for URLField. As far as I know, there are
currently two ways to work around this:
1) Define a custom field class that derives from CharField, doing the same
thing as URLField but using a custom class for it's "form_class" setting
in formfield(). That custom class is identical to forms.URLField, except
for those offending lines.
2) Define that same forms.URLField-like class, and use it in the
"formfield_overrides" setting of your ModelAdmin-derived class in your
admin.py file, as seen in my answer here:
