This allows a very nice code pattern: * the view function handles fetching the required data and doing sanity checks, creates a manipulator and calls the generic view * the generic view handles all the ugly http and form processing, eventually calling the manipulator * the manipulator does all the customized field stuff (additional/modified fields) Sometimes this needs to pass special parameters to the initializer of the manipulator (e.g., a `ChangeManipulator`) must prepopulate default values dependent on the some other parameter of the view). I think this makes a great general pattern. I'm willing to put something up in the wiki if you're interested." enhancement closed Generic views magic-removal normal wontfix manipulator mir@… Unreviewed 1 0 0 0 0 0
