Hi, I'm quite suprised behind the arguments made for ticket #5957 (check- in [7799]). To my opinion "is_required" means that the value is required to be set to whatever value. In HTML this is a bit problematic for checkboxes since they submit either "on" or nothing at all. But a BooleanField could also be represented by a different widget (for example radio buttons or a drop down list) and then "is required" does make sense.
After check-in 7799 "is_required" enforces a certain value (in this case "True") on the BooleanField, while "is_required" on the other fields enforces that it gets a value. So to my opinion the is_required attribute now has two meanings, which is a bad thing.
