[Twisted-Python] Handling forms in woven

   This issue of when a Woven Page subclass has a render() method is
   one that seems to come up quite often in my use of Twisted web.

   If a Woven Page has a bunch of model factory and view update methods
   etc, how/when are they run if the page also has a render() method?

   Should the subclass' render() method always call the superclass'
   render() method?

   A good example is with simpleguard'ed pages which seem to need a
   render() method for the simpleguard check/fail tests but may also
   have a bunch of model and view methods for generating the HTML.

   Any advice much appreciated,


Cheers,

Stu
