``HttpRequest.build_absolute_uri()`` now correctly handles paths starting with ``//``.
``WSGIRequest`` now doesn't remove all the leading slashes either,
because ``http://test/server`` and http://test//server`` aren't the same thing
(RFC2396).
Thanks to SmileyChris for the initial patch.

If we allow any value to remove form fields then we get name clashes
with method names, media classes etc. There was a backwards
incompatibility introduced meaning ModelForm subclasses with declared
fields called media or clean would lose those fields.
Field removal is now only permitted by using the sentinel value None.
The docs have been slightly reworded to refer to removal of fields
rather than shadowing.
Thanks to gcbirzan for the report and initial patch, and several of the
core team for opinions.
Previously the FORMAT_MODULE_PATH setting only accepted one string (dotted
module path). A feature has been added to also allow a list of strings.
This is useful when using several reusable third party apps that define new
formats. We can now use them all and we can even override some of the formats
by providing a project-wide format module.

Exceptions from the (receiver, exception) tuples returned by
``send_robust()`` now have always their traceback attached as their
``__traceback__`` argument.
Fields can now receive the `label_suffix` attribute, which will override
a form's `label_suffix`.
This enhances the possibility to customize form's `label_suffix`, allowing
to use such customizations while using shortcuts such as
`{{ form.as_p }}`.
Note that the field's own customization can be overridden at runtime by
using the `label_prefix` parameter to `BoundField.label_tag()`.

Previously, when logging out, the existing session was overwritten by a
new sessionid instead of deleting the session altogether.
This behavior added overhead by creating a new session record in
whichever backend was in use: db, cache, etc.
This extra session is unnecessary at the time since no session data is
meant to be preserved when explicitly logging out.
Thanks fatal10110 at gmail.com for the report. The fix is 1.6-only
because that code has been refactored in 1.7 (6983201cfb).
'Docs-only' forward port of 120a98120 from 1.6.x.
Avoided introducing a new regex-based SQL splitter in the migrations
framework, before we're bound by backwards compatibility.
Adapted this change to the legacy "initial SQL data" feature, even
though it's already deprecated, in order to facilitate the transition
to migrations.
sqlparse becomes mandatory for RunSQL on some databases (all but
PostgreSQL). There's no API to provide a single statement and tell
Django not to attempt splitting. Since we have a more robust splitting
implementation, that seems like a good tradeoff. It's easier to add a
new keyword argument later if necessary than to remove one.
Many people contributed to both tickets, thank you all, and especially
Claude for the review.
