Any comparison of before-and-after snapshots could work in theory, but in practice it could be expensive to produce the snapshots on larger objects and probably expensive to calculate the differences that way too. Performance is important so I would probably just go for an explicit function call to mark an attribute as having been modified rather than trying to do a diff like that. (It wouldn't work for rollbacks, but I can accept that.)

Please hook a stack implemented as a list in python  to every property 
of the object  that you want to track down.
