While I tend to agree that it would be nice to have an option to validate
models before saving automatically, it's super easy to add yourself using
the pre_save signal:
from django.db.models.signals import pre_save
def validate_model(sender, **kwargs):
if 'raw' in kwargs and not kwargs['raw']:
kwargs['instance'].full_clean()
pre_save.connect(validate_model, dispatch_uid='validate_models')
