Cody, This is a REALLY large list, so I recommend at this level of detailed question to StackOverflow. It is a great resource and lots of Django developers like to show off and write your code for you sometimes :-).
Short answers: There are ways to do custom inline forms: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1559690/custom-form-in-inline-form and filtering the queryset many-to-many choices: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/291945/how-do-i-filter-foreignkey-choices-in-a-django-modelform Also, you can just add a module foreign key reference to Choice as well and set a unique_together constraint on choice + module. There are tradeoffs in all of these approaches.
