Comment:
[https://github.com/django/django/pull/6960 PR]
I think this PR, or at least parts of it, should be considered for 1.10.
The `required` attribute is newly introduced in 1.10 with the following
concerns:
1. The
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/forms/widgets/#radioselect
documentation] about looping over subwidgets suggests the `required`
attribute will be carried over during iteration. (From this one might also
assume `disabled`.)
2. IMO more importantly, as noted in the PR, the `CheckboxSelectMultiple`
widget will behave incorrectly with the `required` attribute. When
browsers see multiple checkboxes with the same `name` attribute marked
`required` the browser requires **all** checkboxes checked instead of at
least one. This validation contradicts Django's server side validation of
requiring at least one item for multiple choice fields. This will make
Django forms using `CheckboxSelectMultiple` appear broken.
