I think that what that http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/releases/1.2/#modelform-is-valid... is saying is that if you don't want your instance to get modified by is_valid(), then when you initially create your ModelForm, you should pass in a copy of your instance. Something like this:

You are right, I should have tried out the trunk much earlier. And I agree that Python is a language for consenting adults (ad pretty much everything you said) so I won't hash it out. I went outside the interface, and now I have to deal with it. I think this came about because I really never
