This module was written to make it simple to add custom operators for view
inheritance.

**Table of contents**

.. contents::
:local:

Usage
=====

**Change a python dictionary (context for example)**


.. code-block:: xml

<attribute name="$attribute" operation="python_dict" key="$key">
$new_value
</attribute>

Note that views are subject to evaluation of xmlids anyways, so if you need
to refer to some xmlid, say ``%(xmlid)s``.

**Move an element in the view**

.. code-block:: xml

<xpath expr="$xpath" position="move" target="$targetxpath" />

This can also be used to wrap some element into another, create the target
element first, then move the node youwant to wrap there.

**Add to values in a list (states for example)**

.. code-block:: xml

<attribute name="$attribute" operation="list_add">
$new_value(s)
</attribute>

**Remove values from a list (states for example)**

.. code-block:: xml

<attribute name="$attribute" operation="list_remove">
$remove_value(s)
</attribute>

Known issues / Roadmap
======================

* add ``<attribute operation="json_dict" key="$key">$value</attribute>``
* support ``<xpath expr="$xpath" position="move" target="xpath" target_position="position" />``
* support an ``eval`` attribute for our new node types
