You can set more than 1 [pre,post]_save signal per-model, no problem. I
generally, and I'm not saying this is the django way, do it like this:
app_name/
     __init__.py
     modes.py
     views.py
     signals.py

Inside my signals.py I have all my signal declarations and connections.
And inside __init__.py I just do:

import app_name.signals

Some people, when confronted with a problem, think “I know, I'll use regular
expressions.” Now they have two problems.
