Comment:
That does not work for `ModelFormSets` as the pop `initial` to
`initial_extra` and only except existing objects using the Queryset.
There currently is no way to create objects using a `ModelFormSet` with
initial data.
I get your point, about compatibility, but you should decide if this odd
behavior is a bug or a feature. Personally it feels like a bug. Especially
as Model and regular form sets handle initial data so differently. There
is no consistent behavior nor any documentation about this.
