Comment (by lukeplant): Please let's not have type checking to decide what type of thing to return, because: * isinstance is always a smell, and you can always find code that will break it. * it results in confusing code. * whenever I have come across code that does this in the past, it has caused problems, especially in higher-level situations (like decorating the decorator), because the 'decorator' no longer functions predictably. I'd be happy with a new function that acts as a decorator, like the suggested `handle_lazy_args`. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/20223#comment:2> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
