   Good catch, I've done something very similar in the past:

   def is_validating(request):
       return "X-Up-Validate" in request.headers

   Then in your form, something like this:

   class MakeAndModelForm(DynamicFormMixin, forms.Form):
        ...
       model = DynamicField(
           forms.ChoiceField,
           choices=lambda form: form.MODEL_CHOICES[form["make"].value()],
           required=lambda form: not is_validating(form.context["request"]),
       )

   Thanks! So there are different ways to achieve it depending on the use case. I wasn't sure if going the initial route is the appropriate way.
