Comment (by dokterbob):
Doing domain-name validation 'the right way' leads to a lot of added
complexity in the code and, what's worse: the risk of false negatives.
People not being able to add a reference to their own site is *not* what
we want.
As for the validation: the error can and should happen at the field level
by adding the validator to `validators` for the database field. For this
an instance of Django's RegexValidator can be used.
