newItem: function(/* Object? */ keywordArgs, /*Object?*/ parentInfo){
// summary:
// Returns a newly created item. Sets the attributes of the new
// item based on the *keywordArgs* provided. In general, the attribute
// names in the keywords become the attributes in the new item and as for
// the attribute values in keywordArgs, they become the values of the attributes
// in the new item. In addition, for stores that support hierarchical item
// creation, an optional second parameter is accepted that defines what item is the parent
// of the new item and what attribute of that item should the new item be assigned to.
// In general, this will assume that the attribute targetted is multi-valued and a new item
// is appended onto the list of values for that attribute.
//
// keywordArgs:
// A javascript object defining the initial content of the item as a set of JavaScript 'property name: value' pairs.
// parentInfo:
// An optional javascript object defining what item is the parent of this item (in a hierarchical store. Not all stores do hierarchical items),
// and what attribute of that parent to assign the new item to. If this is present, and the attribute specified
// is a multi-valued attribute, it will append this item into the array of values for that attribute. The structure
// of the object is as follows:
// {
// parent: someItem,
// attribute: "attribute-name-string"
// }
//
// exceptions:
// Throws an exception if *keywordArgs* is a string or a number or
// anything other than a simple anonymous object.
// Throws an exception if the item in parentInfo is not an item from the store
// or if the attribute isn't an attribute name string.
// example:
// | var kermit = store.newItem({name: "Kermit", color:[blue, green]});

save: function(/* object */ keywordArgs){
// summary:

// The save operation may take some time and is generally performed
// in an asynchronous fashion. The outcome of the save action is

//
// keywordArgs:
// {
// onComplete: function
// onError: function
// scope: object
// }
//
// The *onComplete* parameter.
// function();
//
// If an onComplete callback function is provided, the callback function
// will be called just once, after the save has completed. No parameters
// are generally passed to the onComplete.
//
// The *onError* parameter.
// function(errorData);
//
// If an onError callback function is provided, the callback function
// will be called if there is any sort of error while attempting to
// execute the save. The onError function will be based one parameter, the
// error.
//
// The *scope* parameter.
// If a scope object is provided, all of the callback function (
// onComplete, onError, etc) will be invoked in the context of the scope
// object. In the body of the callback function, the value of the "this"
// keyword will be the scope object. If no scope object is provided,
// the callback functions will be called in the context of dojo.global.
// For example, onComplete.call(scope) vs.
// onComplete.call(dojo.global)
//
// returns:
// Nothing. Since the saves are generally asynchronous, there is
// no need to return anything. All results are passed via callbacks.
// example:
// | store.save({onComplete: onSave});
// | store.save({scope: fooObj, onComplete: onSave, onError: saveFailed});

// then this function returns true if any item has been modified since
// the last save().
//

// The item to check.
//
// exceptions:
// Throws an exception if isDirty() is passed an argument and the
