[Grok-dev] Modeling a class that extend from list() with megrok.rdb

[Hector Blanco]

Oh, I see.

It seems it works a little bit like the selectors in JQuery, correct?
(which kind of "wrap" the element itself in JQuery objects).

Thanks for the hint. I still haven't reached that part. I am still
trying to migrate MyContainer thing... But I'll keep this in mind.
