Correct. TW wants to get rid of all it's C dependencies, currently the only "hard" ones are RuleDispatch and PyProtocols. You *don't need* lxml to inject javascript and css. The "lxml method" is an experimental approach which I will probably deprecate and remove from the codebase someday because it's more trouble than it's worth (a C dependency plus doctype mangling). I though I made this clear in the tutorial... [1]. The "official" approach is to use a base template that will iterate the values in a dict at c.resources and render them + the use of toscawidgets.pylonshf.render() instead of Pylons render so resources get picked up from widgets sent to the template. This technique has been borrowed from TG widgets where they are tightly integrated into the framework, hence the"boilerplateness" perceived my some Pylons users. Also note that none of this is needed (and perhaps not even desired) if you don't want TW to inject javascript or css in the document and do that yourself. I should cover this in more detail on the docs (which I'm slowly, but steadily, working on them in the little free time I rarely have... stay tuned at beta.toscawidgets.org). Meanwhile [2] describes to a certain degree.
