 Currently the comment says:
 {{{
 # Explicitly check for the string '0', which is what as hidden field
 # will submit for False.
 }}}

 But that's just blatantly incorrect, the `HiddenInput` widget submits the
 string `'False'` for `False`.

 There are a couple of solutions here, I have chosen the first in the
 initial patch, due to the fact it's in-line with what happens already:

  1. The `BooleanField` should clean `'False'` to `False`

  2. The `HiddenInput` should render `False` as `''`

  3. A new `HiddenBooleanInput` widget should be created and linked to
 `BooleanField.hidden_widget` (ugh)
