"""
Patch for https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/32244
Concept:
- define a ModelPkField intended specifically to define a read-only pk field.
- validates that the pk value in the post data matches the form's instance, (or that the pk value is None if form has no instance)
i.e., verify that no one tampered with the form's pk data on the round trip
- ModelFormSet uses this field type to define these hidden pk fields, and returns the form's original instance if it validates
