The *changed* property is the internal hash containing all the attributes that have changed since the last set. Please do not update *changed* directly since its state is internally maintained by set. A copy of *changed* can be acquired from changedAttributes.
____
The ``++changed++`` property is involved in decisions about whether or not a collection should be resorted when it is updated. If you modify it manually, you can break the resorting of the collection.
