The ModelForms documentation at the bottom of
[http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/forms/modelforms/#field-types
the "field types" list] states:
{{{
The blank choice will not be included if the model field has blank=False
and an explicit default value (the default value will be initially
selected instead).
}}}
It is true that the default value is initially selected if given, but it
is not true that the "blank choice will not be included". It is included
regardless, unless empty_label is explicitly set to None.
I would consider the documented behavior here to be better than the actual
behavior, but given backwards-compatibility it's probably the docs that
need to change.
