Perfect, I don't know why I wasn't seeing this in the documentation.

Note that you may want to put the value returned from isModified in your own variable in an onSave handler. My experience is that isModified returns false after a successful save until something else is changed. This makes sense. But, if you want to know whether or not the user made any changes during the current *session*, you'll need a more persistent flag.

I've been testing with this function and it seems that it will return the correct value if normal fields are modified, but if the user modifies only content in a visual format field, then it still returns false when it should be returning true.

Has anyone else encountered this?
