Django 1.3 release notes - UNDER DEVELOPMENT
============================================
This page documents release notes for the as-yet-unreleased Django
1.3. As such, it's tentative and subject to change. It provides
up-to-date information for those who are following trunk.
Django 1.3 includes a number of nifty `new features`_, lots of bug
fixes and an easy upgrade path from Django 1.2.

Backwards-incompatible changes in 1.3
=====================================
PasswordInput default rendering behavior
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Prior to Django 1.3, a :class:`~django.forms.PasswordInput` would render
data values like any other form. If a form submission raised an error,
the password that was submitted would be reflected to the client as form
data populating the form for resubmission.
This had the potential to leak passwords, as any failed password
attempt would cause the password that was typed to be sent back to the
client.
In Django 1.3, the default behavior of
:class:`~django.forms.PasswordInput` is to suppress the display of
password values. This change doesn't alter the way form data is
validated or handled. It only affects the user experience with
passwords on a form when they make an error submitting form data (such
as on unsuccessful logins, or when completing a registration form).
If you want restore the pre-Django 1.3 behavior, you need to pass in a
custom widget to your form that sets the ``render_value`` argument::
class LoginForm(forms.Form):
username = forms.CharField(max_length=100)
password = forms.PasswordField(widget=forms.PasswordInput(render_value=True))
Features deprecated in 1.3
