    I note two things: first, asking an Entity if it's dirty or not is
impossible w/o an EC, so is unreasonable to ask for it. second, the
answer seems to be to use nested EC's, but if I do it that way, for
reseting I would need to discard the dirty EC, take a new one and
repopulate it with the original values (most probably this two EC's will
be child of one master EC at different times).

    what's not clear for me is how to repopulate the second EC.
