Comment (by collinanderson):

 I have a pull request here which I believe reverts the problematic parts
 of the original change. https://github.com/django/django/pull/6582

 There are 2 code branches which are basically just hacks to make the
 current ManyToManyFields work properly:
 - in forms/models.py, `model_to_dict` converts a `qs` into a list of
 `pk`s.
 - in admin/options.py, `get_changeform_initial_data` splits a string on
 commas `','`
 Custom form fields should handle this behavior themselves (if they want
 this behavior, which shouldn't be assumed).

 The other code paths are for wrapping the form field in
 `ManyToManyRawIdWidget` or other widgets, and I a custom field will want a
 custom widget.
