I skimmed your post.
You cannot local instance an unsaved object. You just cannot do it. Don’t try anything clever… the EO is tied to a unit of work (editing context) and without ever being saved it simply is not possible to local instance it.
You may have to use the “memento” pattern for your particular case. Make a simple java object, nothing about DB persistence… and then make it an EO only after it has passed muster.
Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
