I have been looking for  a way to know what's going to be rolled back in 
SQLAlchemy so that I can know what was changed and restore other database 
unrelated things to their previous state.

By http://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/latest/orm/events.html#session-events it 
looks like it's available an after_soft_rollback event, but in that even 
the objects already got rolled back and so their history is gone.
In the most common scenario users do Session.flush() and then 
Session.rollback(), and in that case I have before_flush that can tell me 
everything that changed (than I can restore the state of related things 
into after_soft_rollback which can benefit from the knowledge that I 
gathered in before_flush) but if the user does a direct Session.rollback() 
without a flush I couldn't find an event I could attach to know what 
changed an so what is going to be rolled back.

Not sure if that can be achieved or a new event would be needed.
