Is there any way to convert Ember Object into plain javascript object?

Question

I could not find any way to accomplish the task of such conversion as I could not find any means of getting Ember.js properties for the object. Ember.keys returns only the properties I set in create or with get and the properties declared in Ember.extend do not show up there. I use such properties to set up default values (e.g. [] for array properties)

Here is my dirty workaround

var newModel = JSON.parse(JSON.stringify(model));
