Yes! And I just found it! :-)

Actually I was just trying to detect if there was a change on a field. 
So I wanted to get the value of that field.

First I thought that $person->getStreetName() would give me what was 
currently saved in repository. But that actually gets me the request value.
Then I found I could get the original value with _getCleanProperty():

if($person->_getCleanProperty('streetName') != $person->getStreetName()) {
// The value has changed
}

Is this the way?
