There's actually two ways to do this. Your way is one method. The
other is to use conventional model inheritance. Remember,
form_for_model returns a class, so the following will be legal:
BaseLabOrderForm = forms.form_for_instance(original_laborder)
class LabOrderForm(BaseLabOrderForm):
def clean(self):
...
Both will work; it's entirely up to you which one you prefer.

Yes. Form validation and model validation are decoupled. Model
validation is a work in progress.
