I need to be able to distinguish between info and warning messages that get 
passed to the user in admin.

I do this, and it works:

# import the admin messages framework
from django.contrib import admin, messages

class SomeForm(forms.ModelForm):
    ...
    def clean(self):
        # create a pair of empty lists for warning and information messages
        SomeForm.warnings = []
        SomeForm.info = []
        ... # do some things that add messages to the lists, based on
            # things in cleaned_data
        return self.cleaned_data

class SomeAdmin(admin.ModelAdmin):
    ...
    def save_model(self, request, obj, form, change):
        # loop over the lists of messages, and pass them to the messages system
        for message in self.form.warnings:
            messages.warning(request, message)
        for message in self.form.info:
            messages.info(request, message)
        return super(SomeAdmin, self).save_model(request, obj, form, change)

This way yellow info messges get a little tick icon, while warnings have a 
warning sign (and really, ought to come up in orange, not yellow).

Is this a good or correct way of doing it?

Thanks for any advice or suggestions.

Daniele
