Comment (by Leif Kjos): Replying to [comment:2 Mariusz Felisiak]: > Thanks for this ticket, however, signals are the last resort, required in really rare cases and could probably be avoided in yours. We don't want to add new features to them. Personally, I'd use a custom intermediate models, and add this logic to the `.create()` or `.save()` methods. > > Please see TicketClosingReasons/UseSupportChannels for ways to get help with Django usage, where folks can help you in re-designing this validation. > > You can start a discussion on DevelopersMailingList if you don't agree, where you'll reach a wider audience and see what other think, and [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/stable/internals/contributing/triaging- tickets/#closing-tickets follow triaging guidelines with regards to wontfix tickets.] Thanks for the response!
