'This' means 'the current object'. I've always interpreted 'Thisform'
as meaning 'the form that (This) is contained within', and
'Thisformset' to mean 'the formset that (This) is contained within'.
Both 'Thisform' and 'Thisformset' by their nature refer to an object
other than 'This'.
It makes no sense for 'Thisform' at the form level to refer to
itself, although in Fox it certainly does. When I created the 'Form'
property in Dabo, I fixed this inconsistency: self.Form refers to the
containing form for any control, but is None for the form itself.
