From e17c8d815136218d7dd07e21cf78f4104d773d48 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Chris McDonough <chrism@agendaless.com>

Subject:   - Add a ``request_type`` attribute to the available attributes of a
     ``bfg:view`` configure.zcml element.  This attribute will have a    
 value which is a dotted Python path, pointing at an interface.  If     the
 request object implements this interface when the view lookup     is
 performed, the appropriate view will be called.

  - Remove "template only" views.  These were just confusing and were
    never documented.
