Modifying cleaned_data for other fields is probably a bit fragile in clean_<field> methods. For a start, you can only hope to succeed if those other fields were cleaned before your field, which means the ordering of fields is a constraint. A more logical (in terms of the design of newforms data cleaning) place to do multi-field validation and cleaning is the form's clean() method. At that point, you have full access to cleaned_data (in fact, it's what that method returns) and the _errors dictionary so you can see if any fields have errors and, if so, clean out (or just remove the keys) for the password fields.
