I haven't replied because I don't think that I could make the problem any
clearer, Thomas Steinacher figured it out.

Shouldn't the summarybe 'newforms does not check uniqueness' or > similar?
<MODEL>.validate() will return true even if the model definition includes
unique=True and the data isn't unique. As I said in the description the
code I posted was a workaround for <MODEL>.validate() because it doesn't
function as expected. I know that <MODEL>.validate() isn't complete, it
was a suggestion for the implementation. The new forms library isn't
complete either and people create tickets for it, so what's the problem?
Either way, in hindsight the suggestion was a bad one once you take into
consideration the race condition.
