Dirty Tracking

[forker]

Hey guys,

I was wondering why dirty tracking is not implemented in activeresource. Is it just a low priority task or vision of gem owners that it shouldn't be there.

I'd like to tackle on this issue anyways, but before I do that I wanted to hear about your position on this.

To outline the Q:
Should dirty tracking be implemented in activeresource ?

Option 1 (modular) implemented.
Pull request #106

This seems to me that it should be clearly a thing. RESTful calls are far more costly then DB hits, and we already enjoy using it for those DB hits.

I've opened #466 to implement this behavior.
