Ah, I see. When I stepped into that method with the debugger I was a bit
confused because the flow of control seemed to 'hop' back and forth
between the document, the view, and the frame. Thank you for clarifying.

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=9863&atid=109863 the right place
to report wxPython/pydocview bugs?
