Comment:
The issue in your example code is that you have used `default=[]`. This
default is shared between all instances and in this case it is mutable, so
you are modifying the default array.
The correct code is to use `default=list`.
I don't consider this a bug in Django - this is the same behaviour as you
would get if you have code like:
{{{
def myfunc(foo, bar=[]):
bar.append(foo)
return bar
}}}
The first call to `myfunc(1)` would return `[1]`, the second `[1, 1]`,
etc.
