Comment:

 Thanks for this report, however IMO it's not doable.
 
[https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/ref/forms/fields/#django.forms.ChoiceField.choices
 choices] supports many types and we cannot enforce updating widget's
 `choices` when built-in methods are called for `list` or `tuple`, it's a
 different layer. I'd recommend to use a callable for `choices` or to
 enforce updating `widget.choices` :
 {{{
 self.fields["my_field"].widget.choices = self.fields["my_field"].choices
 }}}
