Thanks a lot Gottfried, your patch looks very clean! I will commit it as 
soon as Prabhu and I have fixed the "Order Bug".

Just one thing I didn't understand, could you explain this change?

-    def SetCurrent(self, current):
+    def SetCurrent(self, current, missing = None):
+        if missing is not None:
+            pass
+        

Thanks again!
Nicodemus.
