Interesting issue, I hadn't thought of that.

Would it be appropriate to "die" in such a case (where the code is
being asked to "construct" an object in a manner that overwrites
changed columns that have not been saved to the database)? I would
think so, since it seems like accidental sort of behavior, not
something anyone would have good reason to do.
