    :attr:`__registry__`
      name of the registry for this object (string like 'views',
      'templates'...)

    :attr:`__regid__`
      object's identifier in the registry (string like 'main',
      'primary', 'folder_box')

    :attr:`__select__`
      class'selector

    Moreover, the `__abstract__` attribute may be set to True to indicate that a
    class is abstract and should not be registered.

    At selection time, the following attributes are set on the instance:

    :attr:`_cw`
      current request
    :attr:`cw_extra_kwargs`
      other received arguments

    And also the following, only if `rset` is found in arguments (in which case
    rset/row/col will be removed from `cwextra_kwargs`):

    :attr:`cw_rset`
      context result set or None

      result set, and not the result set as a whole, specify the col number we

    .. Note::

      * do not inherit directly from this class but from a more specific class
        such as `AnyEntity`, `EntityView`, `AnyRsetView`, `Action`...

      * to be recordable, a subclass has to define its registry (attribute
        `__registry__`) and its identifier (attribute `__regid__`). Usually
        you don't have to take care of the registry since it's set by the base
        class, only the identifier `id`

      * application objects are designed to be loaded by the vregistry and
        should be accessed through it, not by direct instantiation, besides
        to use it as base classe.


      * When we inherit from `AppObject` (even not directly), you *always* have
        to use **super()** to get the methods and attributes of the superclasses,
        and not use the class identifier.

        For example, instead of writting::

          class Truc(PrimaryView):
              def f(self, arg1):
                  PrimaryView.f(self, arg1)
