No, apparently not. There's a ticket in for this (#8913) but in the
meantime maybe you could define a clean() method and catch and re-
raise the ValidationError there.
class AAForm(ModelForm):
... blah ....
def clean(self):
try:
self.validate_unique()
except ValidationError:
raise ValidationError('Hey guys, this one's already
there!')
return self.cleaned_data
