Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

The idea is to provide a modification history in a transparent way.

I'm experimenting with SQLObject right now. SQLAlchemy support is not in yet.

When it's enabled it intercepts __setattr__ and the .set() method and tracs the
modifications on it's own table.

It adds a method to the SQLObject instances called get_modification_history()
that will return a list of ObjectStateTrace instances.

This object has 4 key attributes:
* time: moment the modification happened
* column_name: it is the attribute changed in the SQLObject instance
* old_value: value before the change
* new_value: value after the change

To enable this extension add this to your config file:
objectstatetracer.on=True

To use it:
class YourClass(SQLObject)
....

from objectstatetracer.extension import register_class

register_class(YourClass)

And the instances of YourClass should be audited for changes.

I couldn't add the WidgetDescription of HistoryPanel (a datagrid that shows the
modifications), because it's far from being finished.

Check the tests for more info.

IT DOES NOT SUPPORT LAZY UPDATES YET
