I would use signals for that purpose

Hi, i would like to perform validation on m2m field to control, if user made any changes. I'd like to disallow removing relations from m2m field, only adding them.

example:

model Product(models.Model):
    name = models.TextField()
model Order(models.Model):
    products = models.ManyToManyField(Product)


If user creates an order with three products, he can't remove any product from order after object has been saved.

Is there any way to do that on model level?

if i put in clean() method:
current_products = self.products.all() i will get list of products currently assigned to order. Can i get list of objects that was chosen in form, so i could compare them and raise validation error if needed?
