Hi all,

I want to change the default label for the None value in a
ModelChoiceField from the default '--------' to something more
meaningful in the context of my app.

After some research I tried subclassing the ModelChoiceField,
overriding the label_from_instance method like so:

class MyModelChoiceField(ModelChoiceField):
    def label_from_instance(self, obj):
        if obj:
            return 'Something'
        else:
            return 'Nothing here'

which results in all the labels of object choices correctly changed to
'Something', but still '-------' for the None choice and not 'Nothing
here' as I would have expected. Any suggestions how I could change
that default value, preferrably even without introducing my own
subclass?

Regards,

Flo Ledermann
