I set the status of this bug back to new because I don't think the
solution in the 5.0 branch is acceptable. The trunk version is great,
but I'd like to see if the 5.0 branch could be improved.

Status in OpenObject GTK Client: New

Bug description:
Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a partner that has at least one address. In the sample data, use Agrolait.
2. Click the arrow icon to move to the next partner contact.
3. Close the Partners screen.

Expected behaviour: when I close the Partners screen, I have not made any changes, so it should just close.
Actual behaviour: it prompts me, "This record has been modified do you want to save it?"

Analysis:
The record is marked as modified when you move to the next contact. Put a break point in client/bin/widget/screen/screen.py line 584 in display_next(). From there, it calls record.validate_set(), record.reload(), record._reload(), and record.set(). In record.set(), it signals the 'record-changed' event. That fires some code at client/bin/widget/model/group.py line 254 in _record_changed(). That signals the 'model-changed' event, and that fires some code at /bin/widget/model/field.py line 343 in _model_changed(). And that is where the modified flag gets set.

My guess is that the reload() method somehow needs to determine whether or not the set() method should send the 'record-changed' event. Maybe it's as simple as adding a signal parameter with default value True, but I'm not sure.
