Isn't that pretty much what +keyPathsForValuesAffectingValueForKey: is for? The parent object could observe a single property, such as 'modified', and any children would implement either +keyPathsForValuesAffectingValueForKey: or +keyPathsForValuesAffectingModified to return the set of the properties that would cause a child to be treated as modified. No utility method needed -- KVO does it for you.


I suspected it might be but frankly I found the documentation confusing and couldn't get it to work. Also, it's 10.5 only, though there is a deprecated older method that serves a similar purpose.
