Acessing either is_valid() or the errors attribute on the *form* (not on
the BoundField instances) will cause the validation to be run. This is
documented in the validation section of the newforms documentation.
As I said, there's really no use-case where not checking is_valid() or
forms.error before returning form your view makes sense, so this is
hardly an onerous requirement.
