SailsJS prevent model creating with undeclared attributes

Is there a way to prevent an entity creation if it contains an attribute that is not declared in api/models/YourModel?

For example, let's say I used MongoDB, and I have this User model:

module.exports = {
  attributes: {
    name:{type:'string'},
    age:{type:'number'}
  }
};

and I try to .create with this code:

User.create({name:'Walter Jr',age:8,missingTest:'something'}).exec(function createCB(err,created){
  console.log('should fail');
});

Also, if a have a relationship/association to another model, should creation fail as well if the entity id points to an invalid entity?

Maybe I'm missing something, but so far the behaviour seems a bit strange to me.
