Comment (by Aymeric Augustin):
`short_circuit_validation` seems a bit narrow. It covers the specific use
case where you can write a sequence of validator that should pass exactly
in order, and if one fails, it isn't worth checking the next ones. I'm not
convinced that will be sufficient in general "in case of bigger amount of
validators and more complex checks".
I think writing a validator that wraps other validators and delegates to
the appropriate ones, according to your business logic, is the most
flexible approach. It doesn't require changes in Django.
