So, validating and saving models instances in #Django. Shouldn't we just call Model.full_clean() from Model.save() as a default, and make it possible to skip with a skip_clean argument? Am I missing something? It feels like a big win and avoids the footgun aspect of forgetting to run full_clean.

@valberg What about when you're using a queryset.only('field_a'), then call instance.save('update_fields=['field_a'])?

@CodenameTim I guess that would have the same effect as providing skip_clean.
