You can also just call

form.base_fields['tasks'].queryset =  tasks

which will do this:

form.base_fields['tasks']._set_queryset( tasks )

How I found it?  I actually looked at the django code.  As you said in
your post, I've never seen it documented anywhere.  I came across it
after I found it in a few bug reports because apparently, there were
similar issues.  I posted that ticket in my first post.

When you use this, are you having the same issues with the page
reloading without the set queryset until it's reloaded a second time?
