Update to UITableViewDiffableDataSource row

When an instance var of an object changes value then the new state is not shown by the UITableView with a UITableViewDiffableDataSource after the call to dataSource.apply(snapshot).

Is there a way for an update/change flag to work on objects in a UITableViewDiffableDataSource?

This is mentioned in the https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/120320 where developers found that changes in fields do not show as the uniqueIdentifiers have not changed in the object.

I have found that the object with a instance var change must be deleted from the items in the datasource.snapshot and added with a new unique identifier. Here's some psuedo code to illustrate the behaviour

var snapshot = dataSource.snapshot()
updateItem = dataSource.itemIdentifier(for: changedRow)

updateItem.stateVar = true

dataSource.apply(snapShot)

The new state is not shown in the UI

Instead to make the new state show I have to remove the old item, copy to a new instance with a new unique identifier, update the state. Then remove the old item from the snapshot and insert the new item.

Clearly creating a complete new snapshot instead of copy/change of the existing snapshot would show the new object state. However when only one row of a large dataSource is changed there is a performance problem.

Psuedo code that makes the new state show

var snapshot = dataSource.snapshot()
updateItem = dataSource.itemIdentifier(for: changedRowPath)

updateItem.stateVar = true

// make a copy of the updateItem with a new uniqueIdentifier
newbieItem = updateItem.clone() 

// now get the postion prior item in the snapshot     
priorRow = max(changedRowPath.row - 1, 0)
priorItemIndex = IndexPath(row: priorRow, section: changeRowPath.section)
priorItem = dataSource.itemIdentifier(for: priorItemIndex)

// delete updateItem
snapshot.deleteItems([updateItem]
snapshot.insertItems([newbieItem], afterItem: priorItem)
// now apply with new clone and the changed value
dataSource.apply(snapShot

Did I miss a simple way to change one row of a dataSource? Or how should this be handled?
