Comment (by Simon Charette):

 FWIW I started exploring the above idea and published
 [https://github.com/django/django/compare/master...charettes:constraints-
 validation my changes] which pass most of the test suite but still require
 a bit of polishing.

 In the light of the current barrage of issues related to checks that are
 not `UniqueConstraint` aware I think the `Constraint.auto_created`
 creation by `Field.unique` and `Model.Meta.unique_together` has merits as
 it would allow all of the ''unicity'' checks to be performed against
 `_meta.constraints` (or the newly added `total_unique_constraints`)
 instead of combining the three APIs all over the place.
