Django: disallow can_delete on GenericStackedInline

I've built this model which contains a generic foreign key:

class MyModel(models.Model):
    content_type = models.ForeignKey(ContentType, verbose_name=_('content type'))
    object_id = models.PositiveIntegerField(_('object id'))
    content_object = generic.GenericForeignKey('content_type', 'object_id')

Next I've made a generic stacked inline to put it in any ModelAmin class:

class MyModelStackedInline(generic.GenericStackedInline):
    model = MyModel
    formset = generic.generic_inlineformset_factory(MyModel, can_delete=False)
    extra = 0

class SomeOhterModelAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    inlines = [MyModelStackedInline]

However, despite the can_delete=False arg passed by in generic_inlineformset_factory, I always see a Delete checkbox in my admin change_form.

Here is an example: http://img8.imageshack.us/img8/3323/screenshotbe.png

Do you know how to remove this checkbox ?

Thank you :)

Maybe It is a post '09 feature, but you can specify that without overriding the __init__() method :

class StupidCarOptionsInline(admin.StackedInline):
    model = models.StupidOption
    form = StupidCarOptionAdminForm
    extra = 0
    can_delete = False
