Is it possible to reset EntityAspect.IsChanged to false?

Here is the scenario:

A default entity is created with default data. At this point I would like to set IsChanged to false. It is then displayed to the user. If the user then changes a property, then IsChanged should be set to true and it can then be saved as usual.

The point being that I don't want to save default data to the database.

Hi Greg,
 
The only way to set IsChanged to false is setting EntityState to Unchanged.
In your case, this might be problematic because once the user update the entity, it's EntityState will change to Modified (rather then Added) and you would have to handle it.
