Comment (by timgraham):

 1. As I noted on the pull request the
 
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/forms/fields/#django.forms.ModelMultipleChoiceField
 documentation says], "Validates that every id in the given list of values
 exists in the queryset." so my understanding is that you should provide a
 list of ids for the initial values instead of a queryset.

 2. I don't think it's important that providing an incorrect initial type
 results in inconsistent behavior.

 3. `ModelMultipleChoiceField.clean()` returns model instances. Quoting the
 docs again, "Normalizes to: A `QuerySet` of model instances."

 Maybe some documentation clarifications would be enough to resolve this
 ticket. What do you think?
