Comment (by romgar): I was wondering the other day why the default Django admin widget for related fields is a drop-down by default, instead of an autocomplete (as we can have with `raw_id_field` option), when my Django admin page was crashing down. I understand that it's more convenient with a drop-down when you have few data, but there is a real risk for Django to crash / expose a lot of data through this feature, and that's not what we are used to with Django. Usually, default choices in the whole framework are "safe". @aaugustin, I guess you are not working on it right now, as this ticket is 4 years old. Do you think it make sense to change this default behaviour, or it has too many impacts? -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/17881#comment:7> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
