Use Transaction

So your data will be atomic (see : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACID), _(*8)

Use Normal Save

So your behaviors still works, _(*9)

Add Validation At Main Model

$form->errorSummary($model);

will give you, _(*10)

<<Related Class Name>> #<<index + 1>> : <<error message>>
My Related Model #1 : Attribute is required

It Works On Auto Incremental PK Or Not (I Have Tried Use UUID)

See here if you want to use my behavior : https://github.com/mootensai/yii2-uuid-behavior, _(*11)

To Do

Test it on another DB. I only test it on MySQL., _(*12)

I'm open for any improvement, _(*13)
