To ease the use of models, it would be interesting to have a Model structure which holds the model and its known state in database. This would allow us to use a simple .save() on a model to save it, no matter its existence, and it would only save what has been changed.
This may be done by implementing a special field in the model structure (so it would be opt-in) with some metadata about the model (e.g. its known database value, if it exists).
