Depends on what you define as 'good use' but for Agilo we basically
use a lot of interfaces to their maximum extend (and beyond ;-).
We use stream filters to:
- Modify the ticket page
- inject resources in all template
Can you point us to some examples?
In Trac itself, the stream filters could all be replaced with some
"placeholders" or defined points of injection of extra xhtml content.
Stripping of access keys and injection of form token could both be
replaced by functions used in templates.
The stream filter approach is indeed very flexible, but also fragile by
design. It's all well and good if the templates don't evolve, but as
we're making changes, we can't possibly know which plugins will break,
as /any/ part of the content might be relevant for some xpath expression
used by a transform filter. On the other hand, if we're adding
"extension points" in the templates (the exact form these extensions
points could take I don't know yet - Jinja2 informed opinions welcomed),
they'll naturally be part of the template's evolution.
Basically we're using Genshi 0.6 so heavily that the current Genshi
trunk raises an exception if we run it with the Agilo match templates ;-)
Which I suppose is also a situation you can't be happy with...
