Oh I am like the fourth person trying to fix the codebase. Yes the show before pack ran some warnings in my head as from PyQT experience this is also wrong.
As for others i kind of have no clue as i am the most newbie person on python-efl right now. I think we'll have to just rebuild that part. Thanks a lot for your insights. We kind of needed this to get a clear idea on the direction to take on this and some other apps. We were kind of reluctant to go for a rewrite but considering the manageable complexity and total size of the codebase we'll go for it. I'll also take this as an opportunity to document python-efl better. And like learn stuffs from scratch. Thanks a lot for your comment, it's kind of a pivotal moment.
