Hmm, you could just clear all the modified ones down to their primary
keys at the beginning of each request and then let lazy-loading bring in
the rest of the data if you need it.

Seems okay, as long as you don't rely on lazy-loading to delay inflating
other objects or loading LOBs, and don't care about deletes.  Accessing
the internal object index is easy in the upcoming new release.
