Comment:
The problem described here belongs to this line:
http://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/admin/options.py#L501
Actually, the {{{initial_data}}} for model forms on
{{{SelectMultipleWidget}}} expects an iterable object like a list or tuple
for selecting the choices, while instead we're passing a string - i.e.
"12" - that get then divided in in "1" and "2". I thought this could be
changed in something like {{{string.split(',')}}} but I can see this
behaviour is not documented anywhere, so maybe some core dev has a better
idea (or maybe this should be marked as wontfix?).
