Description
in django.contrib.admin.options ModelAdmin Change_view/Add_view exists "_saveasnew" in request.POST
But don't exists work with "_save"
i can imagine it in _changeform_view, row 1598:
if all_valid(formsets) and form_validated:
if "_saveasnew" in request.POST or "_save" in request.POST or ... _addanother or _continue.... :
What i can achieve with that:
if '_save' is omitted, i can see in response without call save model and save fieldsets that all my forms and formsets are valid.
Right now it is not possible: or not valid, or save all and call self.response_{add or change}.

As far as I understand correctly, you would like to add an option to validate data without saving anything, however Django Admin is not a universal tool for building an app and adding a new option that is not used by Django Admin itself is always controversial.
Please first start a discussion on the DevelopersMailingList, where you'll reach a wider audience and see what other think, and follow the guidelines with regards to requesting features.
