https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/24589
This ticket has a patch to pass through the "widgets" argument for generic class-based views. It was closed with "won't fix" with this comment: "*I don't think the possibility of saving a few lines of user code justifies the complexity of reimplementing the parameters to modelform_factory() as CBV parameters and methods.*" I don't understand. The patch was quite small (doesn't seem complex), and it could give everyone the ability to overload widgets. Aside from just saving lines of code, it also would act more as expected. I tried using "widgets" before seeing that it didn't work. Also, it would support not making a new form class where every field just has to be copied (useless boilerplate).
