Comment:

 The intended contract for done() is that at point of entry, all the forms
 are valid. If there is validation to be performed, it should be performed
 in the clean methods for the previous forms.

 To follow through your example -- if one of the things you need to do for
 a valid form is to check the credit card, why isn't this being done as
 part of the cleaning for the form that took the credit card details? By
 your own admission - the right response if the card is declined is to re-
 show the credit card page, so why should the already existing clean method
 handle this?

 Closing needsinfo; feel free to reopen if you can explain why this *can't*
 (not just "I don't want to") be handled as part of the form's clean
 method.
