`https://dev.plone.org/ticket/12433` reopened: BrowserView method name can cause error in portal_view_customizations

[d-maurer]

The current "plone.app.customerize.register" contains the following code

def templateViewRegistrations():
    regs = []
    for reg in getViews(IBrowserRequest):
        factory = reg.factory
        while hasattr(factory, 'factory'):
            factory = factory.factory
        ....

The while hasattr(factory, 'factory'): factory = factory.factory loop is causing the problem described in "https://dev.plone.org/ticket/12433" - which therefore is still there in the current Plone versions.

I have eliminated this loop and still all tests pass. Apparently, it is not relevant for the proper functioning of "plone.app.customerize". Does anyone still knows for what purpose the loop has been introduced?
