Currently, BooleanField will accept a value of 'False' and convert it to a
boolean False in cleaned_data, for the case where it accepts data from a
hidden field. However, if it is rendered as a CheckboxInput widget again,
it will be rendered as checked, as the string 'False' from the initial
data is converted to a True value.
{{{
Failed example:
w.render('is_cool', 'False')
Expected:
u'<input type="checkbox" name="is_cool" />'
Got:
u'<input checked="checked" type="checkbox" name="is_cool"
value="False" />'
}}}
This was happening to me in a strange case of a form validating for the
preview stage of FormPreview, but failing validation after the POST, but
there are probably other cases where someone might want to render a hidden
value of 'False' into a CheckboxInput.
