Django model mixin to force Django to validate (i.e. call `full_clean`) before `save`
class ValidateModelMixin(object):
"""Make :meth:`save` call :meth:`full_clean`.
.. warning:
This should be the left-most mixin/super-class of a model.
Do you think Django models ``save`` method will validate all fields
(i.e. call ``full_clean``) before saving or any time at all? Wrong!
