The model itself.
So right now when you inspect, puts, etc on the model, it shows only the attributes which are persistent. I would like to augment it to also show my non-persisted attributes. This is for debugging purposes only.
I'm guessing somewhere in ActiveModel or ActiveRecord, the to_s is being overridden. Is there a general way I can override so that to_s, inspect, and awesome_print will all show the non-persisted attributes?

What is it that you want to call to_s on? An instance of the model or
the attribute itself? If the attribute then what class it is? If the
model instance then just define to_s in your model class to do
whatever you want.
