Just pass the queryset= parm into formset creation during post as you do
during GET:
formset = ReportFormSet(request.POST, request.FILES, queryset=reports)
As I mentioned in ticket #9758, I do not know if this is really what's
intended to be required when using model formsets, but it is a way to make
the post data get matched up properly with existing DB instances.
