- The ``repoze.bfg.interfaces.INewResponse`` interface now includes a

  ``request`` attribute; as a result, a handler for INewResponse now
  has access to the request which caused the response.

- The INewResponse event is now not sent to listeners if the response
  returned by view code (or a renderer) is not a "real" response
  (e.g. if it does not have ``.status``, ``.headerlist`` and
  ``.app_iter`` attribtues).
