New Features

• Field Input Modifiers/Model Input Modifiers (for cleaning input data)
• Data Representations (i.e. restrict attributes via attribute white/blacklist)
• Model Comparison | Diff Utility
• Triggers*
• Relationships instead/in addition to nested models/stores.
• Data Diff
  • Object Diff
  • Array Diff
  • String Diff

*Events can already be used to listen for changes, but there currently isn't a concept for preventing a change, replacing a value, or applying something to all models without explicitly setting up event listeners. The concept of triggers should allow for a simple way to define handlers in a central location. Triggers should be applied to stores.
