BTW, The HIG also suggests adding a '*' to the window title if there are
unsaved change in the file.

primary.html#primary-window-titles

Perhaps change notifications should be propagated to a central location.
That way the code can test a single flag instead of scanning all the
objects clases whenever you want to determine if the data file is clean
or dirty.  Makes the test before presenting the save dialog trivial.
Sadly it probably wouldn't allow counting of the number of changes, as
one new transaction would likely generate three or more notifications
(one for the transaction itself and one for each split.)
