Comment:
Why not add a programatic way of choosing the focus in the admin class,
especially dynamic.
'''Use case:''' I want to take a user to an admin form and highlight the
field to edit from another part of the admin. I have a long form with
collapsed fields and instead of re-creating a view want to simply
highlight the one field I want them to edit. Following the DRY principle.
This would be extremely useful and make admin much more flexible without
adding significant overhead to the code.
