  // example, the entity keys required by denormalizers. Therefore, if the
  // received value equals the stored value, return FALSE without throwing an
  // exception. But only for fields that the user has access to view, because
  // the user has no legitimate way of knowing the current value of fields
  // that they are not allowed to view, and we must not make the presence or
  // absence of a 403 response a way to find that out.
