Create a new article, with categories, via the form, but use commit=False.
The m2m data won't be saved until save_m2m() is invoked on the form.
>>> ArticleForm = form_for_model(Article)
>>> f = ArticleForm({'headline': u'The walrus was Paul', 'pub_date': u'1967-11-01',
... 'writer': u'1', 'article': u'Test.', 'categories': [u'1', u'2']})
>>> new_art = f.save(commit=False)
# Manually save the instance
>>> new_art.save()
>>> new_art.id
4
# The instance doesn't have m2m data yet
>>> new_art = Article.objects.get(id=4)
>>> new_art.categories.all()
[]
# Save the m2m data on the form
>>> f.save_m2m()
>>> new_art.categories.all()
[<Category: Entertainment>, <Category: It's a test>]
Here, we define a custom Form. Because it happens to have the same fields as
the Category model, we can use save_instance() to apply its changes to an
existing Category instance.
