Here's what I am wanting to do.

- When I create my widgets, I want to assign a special attribute like
"handler=SomeObject.someClassMethod" which gets assigned to a list or
dict that then is available to the controller for the next page
request so I can write a very generic form/request/event handler.

So, I have this working well... however, my two questions are:
1. I can store this information in a globally defined list or dict and
I find that it does persist between browser requests... I would have
figured that it would be re-initialized every time.   So, can a TG
application, once loaded via CherryPy, maintain a persistent or static
set of globals as I am seeing here? or am I seeing something that is
more a bug and not a feature?

2. If #1 is yes, is this safe?

3. Lastly, since my method basically creates a dictionary or list in
which the data is a pointer to a method defined as a classmethod..
does this value change or vary from user to user, request to request?
I'm going to assume no for now.

Has anyone done anything like this in TG with globals?   I would
prefer not to store this information in the user session since it
seems rather strange to store pointers to methods in such a place...
and might be a bad idea to do so.
