I don't know how it worked back then, but if it's worse than today, I
don't know how they ever managed to get people to use it. I'm not a
fan and I don't have a choice about using it :)

Yes, that's probably the best way to sort out the problems.
It would of course be nice if python could detect that these files
aren't usable and just regenerate them. I realise it might not be a
trivial feature to implement though.

They're not actually version controlled, but "view private" as someone
described. This means I'll see them whenever I'm using the view they
were created in.
