 Currently the admin doesn't really work well when registering a model that
 has a ArrayField of which the base_field has choices e.g.:

 {{{
 class Post(model.Model):
     category = ArrayField(
         models.CharField(choices=[
             ('FASHION', 'Fashion'),
             ('STYLE', 'Style'),
             ('SPORTS', 'Sports'),
             ('FUN', 'Fun'),
         ], max_length=8),
         size=2,
         blank=True,
         default=list
     )
 }}}

 For example, the edit form uses a simple text input to edit the choices
 instead of a `MultipleChoiceField`. Adding the field to `list_display`
 will show the raw values, not the display names. Adding the field to
 `list_filter` will only show filter options of combinations used in the
 database (stringified arrays).
