 The docs at
 
http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/fields/#django.db.models.ManyToManyFields.limit_choices_to
 says "''limit_choices_to has no effect when used on a !ManyToManyField
 with an intermediate table.''" This is confusing since just a few
 paragraphs above, it states "''Behind the scenes, Django creates an
 intermediary join table to represent the many-to-many relationship.''"
 These two statements seem to be at odds to each other. I '''think''' what
 is meant is that limit_choices_to does not work on intermediate tables
 that are specified via the 'through' parameter, but this is only a guess
 (as I don't know of any other kind of intermediate table that it could be
 referring to.)
