Comment (by Honza_Kral):
Another version of the patch.
Implemented:
* moved ValidationError to django.core.exceptions, leaving ErrorList in
django.forms
* field.validate and field.clean on db fields
* model.clean and model.validate on models
* moved validate_unique to models
* have formsets call form.save instead of save_instance (split
save_instance into two functions for that purpose)
Not yet implemented:
* validators and their use in both db and form fields
* custom error messages (being able to override the messages from models
in forms etc.)
Broken:
* save_as_new on formsets - the model without the FK doesn't validate
well, I don't know what to do with this one - on one hand it shouldn't
validate (the model IS invalid), on the otherhand it's useful feature.
Maybe when I get around to enable turning model validation off for a form
instance, that might help a bit. Or some sort of delayed validation.
suggestions welcome.
Changed and untested:
* BaseGenericInlineFormSet
stay tuned for more.
