djangos' ORM itself could be built on top of SQLAlchemy. i bet if someone ported it, it would catch on pretty quick.
but anyway, no, SA itself doesnt get into this. it prefers a "pluggable" architecture so that if someone built a validation layer, that would be an optional extension you could use with it. in short, if this is an effort youre looking to make, we'd be glad to have it as an option for people looking for that sort of thing. theres several places in SA such a feature could be tacked onto, either within the ORM attribute instrumentation, or within TypeEngine objects, etc. (well ok, probably just those two).
