No actually the reason for this is not caching, but the fact that ObjectContext 
is an isolated view of an object sugbgraph, which can contain only 1 instance 
of any given object ("uniquing"). So a select that fetches data for the object 
already in the context will update that object (instead of creating a second 
copy). On the other hand if such object is modified locally in the context, 
select will not revert user modification (as an opposite behavior would have 
been really evil).
