I was afraid of this ... :( Back to using get_request() then!

When executing code within a property getter/setter, I can't seem to get to the REQUEST object.
self.REQUEST always seems to return <Special Object Used to Force Acquisition> ...
Anyway around this?
No. Python's low level attribute access methods ("__getattribute__", "__getattr__", "__setattr__", property setter/getter) are below the reach of acquisition. Their "self" is not acquisition wrapped. That's why your "self.REQUEST" is "Acquisition.Acquired" (rather then the acquire object). -- Dieter
