Comment (by lrekucki):

 I found two odd things in your patch:

 One was partially already in Django:

 {{{
 try:
     parents = [b for b in bases if issubclass(b, ModelForm)]
 except NameError:
     # We are defining ModelForm itself.
     parents = None
 }}}

 Your patch changes {{{ModelForm}}} to {{{BaseModelForm}}} which makes the
 "{{{try: except:}}}" look silly, because it will never trigger. It's also
 now duplicated in {{{BaseFormMetaclass}}}.

 Second, is the doubled call to {{{BaseFormOptions.__init__}}}.

 I fixed the second by adding {{{make_options}}} method on the metaclass,
 which can be then overriden, and the first by using {{{isinstance(b,
 cls)}}} instead of {{{issubclass}}}. This has a small caveat, that it will
 consider any class using this metaclass as a parent of the form (not just
 subclasses of BaseForm/BaseModelForm), but I'm pretty sure that anyone
 doing this, really knows the implications.
