Hi! If I understand this correctly, subclassing `forms.widgets.Input` was a wrong idea. As you can see in Input's source (https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/_modules/django/forms/widgets/#Input <https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.10/_modules/django/forms/widgets/#Input>), it always renders single <input> tag, so you'd always get single value attribute from it, which is a string, not a list.
