Comment:

 I agree the original issue appears to be fixed.

 Regarding forms, I think it's better if the developer includes `help_text`
 or a custom error message if they wants to include the accepted formats.
 `Field.input_formats` is something like `[u'%Y-%m-%d', u'%m/%d/%Y',
 u'%m/%d/%y']` which most end users won't know how to interpret.
