The new wizards: osv_memory

With v5 a new wizard solution has appeared in OpenERP, the osv_memory objects. The good thing about them is that they behave like the other osv objects so we don't have to learn new tricks to use them. A good introduction can be found in this forum topic, in Fabien's post. The bad thing is that they also have some tricks and those are not documented. If you search the forums you'll find mostly questions not answers. In the source code, most of the wizards are still the old wizard.interface type, the new osv_memories are mainly used for module installation configuration dialogs. Despite these problems I'll stay with osv_memory and hopefully I'll never have to learn the old way:)
