DataMapper should have a way to ignore metastate properties

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Right now it can be difficult to use DataMapper to copy values from a BusinessBase type to a DAL type, because it attempts to automatically copy the metastate properties. The result is that you need something like this:

DataMapper.Map(this, data, new string[] { "Parent", "BrokenRulesCollection", "IsValid", "IsSelfValid", "IsNew", "IsDirty", "IsDeleted", "IsSelfDirty", "IsBusy", "IsSelfBusy", "IsSavable", "IsChild" });

Describe the solution you'd like There should be some simpler way to tell DataMapper to ignore metastate properties without having to manually list them.

Rocky, I'm using AutoMapper by Jimmy Bogard to map to and from my DAL to CSLA. It works pretty well and ignores the metastate information. It might be something to consider.
