Comment (by Israel Saeta Pérez):
Hi Vlastimil!
I've tried to reproduce the issue you mention but it's not possible, since
when the form field is required the empty label option is not rendered.
From the documentation
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.0/ref/forms/widgets/#django.forms.SelectDateWidget:
> If the DateField is not required, SelectDateWidget will have an empty
choice at the top of the list
You can see this in the code as well:
https://github.com/django/django/blob/47d238b69602711c06c369a5555bb554a4b3f7fb/django/forms/widgets.py#L955-L995
Therefore what you mention can never happen I believe. Can you provide a
code sample where you can reproduce the issue? Otherwise I'm in favor of
marking this as invalid.
