HTML* classes for cgi are now all new-style Add regression test for old behaviour: Lookup of a value of a HTMLProperty was possibly via getitem -- for old-style classes this worked because __getattr__ returned the __getitem__ of a newly created HTMLItem object, this does no longer work for new-style classes as these look up special method only on the class not the instance.

def preset_new(db, cl, nodeid, newvalues):
    """ Make sure the status is set on new issues"""

    if newvalues.has_key('status') and newvalues['status']:
        return

    new = db.status.lookup('new')
    newvalues['status'] = new


def init(db):
    # fire before changes are made
    db.issue.audit('create', preset_new)
