Thanks for the reply Rajneesh, but I'm looking for a more scalable option. (Ideally I would like to write a wrapper of some kind which does the task regardless of which Model is it) My use case is that I'm using django-piston for building a REST API, which I tweaked to give me what I wanted (http://rockerhome.wordpress.com/2012/05/06/hacking-django-piston/) Since I'm exposing different field names to the external world as mentioned in my post, I want to validate those while still continuing to use the django Forms/ModelForms for validation of submitted data for data updation. It has to work for partial updates too.
I don't know if I was able to explain myself. Let me know.
