Certainly nothing I would want to use (subjectively).
To clarify, I wasn't saying that 10% of users would make use of this functionality... just 10% of -forms-. In terms of the number of people that would benefit from this, I think it would be -much higher- than 10%. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's why I brought it up to discuss. In terms of your hypothetical 'what would happen', I don't think it's a fair question in this case. My suggestion provides a generic interface for passing in external data... a common and useful design pattern. I think your question would be fair if I was asking to add a 'user=' argument or something similar, but I'm not. > I personally love the fact, that Django is simple, no feature bloat, > everything is as simple as possible while maintaining 100% usability. > > It's just my personal opinion, but from the look of the code its > shared among others as well. No argument here. These were the reasons I picked Django over its competitors. I don't feel that my suggestion goes against these principles. - Ben --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django developers" group.
