I agree with you that there should be BBB code that provides the old
behavior and I agree with Philipp that not using that old behavior is a
benefit for the CMF.
Sure. I just don't want to *make* people upgrade CMF when upgrading
Zope, unless there is a reason which is important *to the CMF*.
An interesting factoid I found while spelunking this issue: the CMF (by
way of DCWorkflow) is literally the oldest consumer of the expression
machinery outside of ZPT itself! Shane's earliest checkin of the
'Expression' module was nearly 5 years ago, and used an empty string as
the class-level default for the 'text' attribute.
FWIW the following patches gives the proper BBB behaviour.
Shall I check it in? Does it need to send a deprecation warning?
