Comment:
This looks like expected behavior to me. With the model you gave, a true
or false value is required since the field can't be null, therefore the
user must provide a value. I imagine your use case might be an API request
where if the user didn't provide a value, a value of false was saved?
Django doesn't normally fallback to a model field default if a value isn't
provided to a form, but maybe this merits a mention in the release notes.
