    INTERNAL: A combination of readFromRowIntoObject and buildClone.
    buildClone assumes the attribute value exists on the original and can simply be copied.
    readFromRowIntoObject assumes that one is building an original.
    Both of the above assumptions are false in this method, and actually attempts to do both at the same time.
    Extract value from the row and set the attribute to this value in the working copy clone. In order to bypass the shared cache when in transaction a UnitOfWork must be able to populate working copies directly from the row.

  - dontUseBatchReading
```
public void dontUseBatchReading()

This should only be used if it is know that the related objects are always required with the source object, or indirection is not used. A join-fetch can either use an INNER_JOIN or OUTER_JOIN, if the relationship may reference null or an empty collection an outer join should be used to avoid filtering the source objects from the queries. Join fetch can also be specified on the query, and it is normally more efficient to do so as some queries may not require the related objects. Typically batch reading is more efficient than join fetching and should be considered, especially for collection relationships.
