Comment:

 In my opinion this is a fairly significant issue. I spent all morning
 trying to figure out why a ModelForm (which was working perfectly locally
 on SQLite) had broken checkbox fields when deployed with a mysql backend.

 {{{
 parent = ParentModel.objects.select_related('child').get(pk=id)
 # BooleanFields won't work with this form if using MySQL because their
 values are rendered as ints due to select_related()
 child_form = ChildModelForm(instance=parent.child)
 }}}

 If there's no easy fix to this in Django itself I think there should at
 least be a warning in the documentation letting users know of this issue.
