Django does not do any model field validation by default at the moment. Admin does it using an old system (essentially, oldforms and Add- and ChangeManipulators) that is being removed. We are adding more coherent model field validation prior to 1.0. This is ticket #6845 and it's actively work in progress (I reviewed it in detail over the weekend and Honza is going to be working on the patch at the EuroPython sprint this coming weekend). For now, just do the validation manually in your model's save() method. It's not ideal, but that's the way things are for the time being.
