You've filtered your changelist in your admin site and you want to edit a few entries here; you click on an object, edit it and press save, and you end up back at the default unfiltered changelist view. This ModelAdmin override is so that if you press "save" (not "save and add another", or "save and continue editing") you end up back at your filtered changelist.
There are other ways out there and other snippets to do similar; however I hadn't seen one to only redirect if you pressed save so this is what I came up with. Hopefully it's useful.

Determines the HttpResponse for the change_view stage.
We are returning the user to a filtered changelist page
from the change screen when the user presses save.
This makes for more intutive editing of filtered objects
since upon saving you will be redirected back to the filtered
changelist page.
Requires that in your admin/change_form.html you add a hidden
form input named "_go_to_on_save" that you can populate with
the value from request.META.HTTP_REFERER as below:
{% block after_related_objects %}{% if request.META.HTTP_REFERER %}<input type="hidden" name="_go_to_on_save" value="{{ request.META.HTTP_REFERER }}" />{% endif %}{% endblock %}
