Comment 3 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-09-24 22:28:47 UTC

Looks good, I will commit and make related changes 

I want to add a comment but the new system don't let me
"It's seems a bad idea because getting datatype each time we want to make a edit put lots of pressure on server I think using a cache for properties would be better (like featured.py)"

Comment 4 Kunal Mehta (Legoktm) 2013-09-24 22:28:49 UTC

Now I can post a new comment, so I'll respond here too.

Your idea is really interesting, would be a good thing the use of the cache, either for speed and for the bandwidth.
