I find it a bit odd that validates_uniqueness_of always hits the database even when the attribute we are concerned with has not changed. It's easy enough to add a dirty checking condition to a uniqueness validation, but it seems like this should be the default behavior and always running the validation should require some sort of a flag. Would this change be accepted?
