5524	Cleaned form data should not be deleted if other data is invalid.	Ben Slavin	Simon Charette	"Currently, when validating a newforms Form object (```.full_clean()```), the ```cleaned_data``` attribute is deleted if any of the fields on the form are invalid.

Data that has been cleaned should be retained, rather than deleted.

Some sample use cases are:
 1. Allowing partial previews (discussed in #5153)
 2. Maintain file-uploads across submits of a form
 3. Prevent having to perform expensive operations twice (hash the value and compare on resubmit)
