 {{{
 Required form fields now have the required HTML attribute. Set the new
 Form.use_required_attribute attribute to False to disable it. The required
 attribute isn’t included on forms of formsets because the browser
 validation may not be correct when adding and deleting formsets.
 }}}
 i would expect all of that (it's rendered, can be disabled, isn't rendered
 in formsets) to appear somewhere around
 https://docs.djangoproject.com/el/1.10/ref/forms/fields/#required, but it
 does not.

 ref https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/27299. I guess this per-widget
 option should rather not be mentioned in the field documentation...?
