Comment (by Tim Graham):

 As Simon said in #29655, "Enabling model validation on save is likely to
 break a few things and degrade performance significantly. I don't think
 that's a pattern we should encourage or support at this point. Django and
 third-party applications simply don't expect ValidationError to be thrown
 on save(), this effectively change the signature of the function."

 Thus, a ticket suggesting that would be closed as wontfix unless a
 discussion on the mailing list reaches a different conclusion.
