Thanks for your reply, sorry I didn't get back to this sooner.

I'm definitely seeing this string generated by my descendant of
CheckboxSelectMultiple, and I'm pretty sure I saw it when I was using
a straight CheckboxSelectMultiple widget as well.

It's not immediately clear why user-interface oriented instructions
would be stored with the database model -- it seems to me that the
user interface code (newforms or widgets) ought to handle this itself.

I'm not comfortable subclassing Form, but I do understand using the
help_text attribute.  Since I wasn't aware it existed, I don't have
any other information in there.
