Hello.

How to raise a `ValidationException` in the models `clean` method?

    def clean(self):
        from django.core.exceptions import ValidationError
        raise ValidationError({'title': 'not ok'})

The above does not add the error to the `title` field (when using a form), 
but to the non field errors.

This is possible inside a form (`self._errors['title'] = 
self.error_class([msg])`), but `self._errors` does not exist inside the 
models `clean` method.

I know that clean normally is for non field errors, but there are cases 
when only some kind of combination of values in separate fields are valid. 
I want to directly associate the error with a field and let the user know 
"if you change this field than everything passes".

Is it possible (even if not recommended)?
