 Hidden input fields will print errors like "It\'s the thing &" as "(Hidden
 field test) It's the thing &". with HTML that is double escaped as


 {{{
 <ul class="errorlist nonfield">
     <li>(Hidden field test) It&amp;#39;s the thing &amp;amp;</li>
 </ul>
 }}}


 Using this code:



 views.py
 {{{
 class TestForm(forms.Form):
     test = forms.CharField(widget=forms.HiddenInput(), required=False)
     foo = forms.CharField()

 class StoreGroupDelete(FormView):
     form_class = TestForm
     template_name = 'test/test_delete.html'

     def form_valid(self, form):
         form.add_error('test', 'It\'s the thing &')
         return self.form_invalid(form)
 }}}

 test.html
 {{{
         <form method="post">
             {% csrf_token %}
             <ul>
             {{ form.as_ul }}
             </ul><input type="submit" />
         </form>
 }}}

 This only happens on hidden inputs. Regular fields work fine. This is on
 1.11.7.
