Unless I'm misunderstanding something, I suggest to replace `sender=self` by `sender=self.__class__` in the example. And maybe specify that sender is a class most of the time. I can do the change if someone confirms that issue." Cleanup/optimization closed Documentation dev Normal fixed Unreviewed 0 0 0 0 0 0
