Cleaning returns instance instead of pure object

[mariusrak]

When I run schemaInstance.clean() with object of some class. I receive object of that class again. Problem is, that when the class adds some properties, they are in "cleaned" object again. So the object is polluted by the properties. Is this behavior expected and wanted or is it a bug? Can it be somehow prevented? For example by some option of clean()? Thanks

Thank you for submitting an issue!

If this is a bug report, please be sure to include, at minimum, example code showing a small schema and any necessary calls with all their arguments, which will reproduce the issue. Even better, you can link to a saved online code editor example, where anyone can immediately run the code and see the issue.

If you are requesting a feature, include a code example of how you imagine it working if it were implemented.

@mariusrak Clean is mostly intended / tested for simple objects. Have you tried setting mutate: true option (assuming that mutating the original instance would be okay)?

If you think it should be fixed, you'll need to post some simple reproduction code to better show the exact problem.

Since mutate is set to false, the object should be copied. Hence, I'd expect that it would copy only data and not instantiate same class.

Closing since there is no reproduction to look at
