limit)choices_to and OneToOne field affecting admin

Hi,

I have a model that has a OneToOneField to User and a
limit_choices_to
parameter set:

class Profile(models.model):
[---tab---] user = models.OneToOneField(User,
limit_choices_to={'is_staff':True})

When I use this is_staff parameter, I can only see staff
users when I
log in to the Django admin and try to edit users by clicking
on the
Users link.  Why would a limit_choices_to parameter on
another model
impact the User model administration?

Found it.  In line 745 and 746 in main.py in
django/contrib/admin/
views

        if self.opts.one_to_one_field:
            qs =
qs.complex_filter(self.opts.one_to_one_field.rel.limit_choic
es_to)

What was the thought behind this, and why wouldn't this be
optional?
