So add a unique constraint on the database level (to be safe) and check for this condition in code (validateForSave) before saving to the database.

Just use a compound primary key like a join entity, both being propagated from the entities in the many-to-many relationship. This applies the desired constraint without needing to actually add an explicit constraint to the DB.

Hmmm. I actually don't like that for entities that are more than just "join entities" with only two keys. Whether it works or not, I just don't like the modeling. But that's my own taste, do what works for you.
