Comment (by ngzhian):

 Error is caused because all the new fields added in 1.8
 `IntegerRangeField`, `FloatRangeField`, `DateTimeRangeField`, and
 `DateRangeField`, all inherit from `BaseRangeField`.

 `BaseRangeField` itself defines its widget as
 `forms.MultiWidget([self.base_field.widget, self.base_field.widget])`
 
[https://github.com/django/django/blob/master/django/contrib/postgres/forms/ranges.py#L18
 postgres.forms.ranges.py#18]. However, `MultiWidget` raises `
 NotImplementedError('Subclasses must implement this method.')` just like
 @joelburton mentioned.

 I'm not sure how to patch this. Thinking that:
 1. Each of the child classes of `BaseRangeField` should overwrite
 `__init__` to put in their own widgets.
 2. create a new `widgets.py` file in `contrib.postgres` to define the new
 widgets.
