Nobody has a comment on this??

Surely I can't be the first person to choose to use the devel
templates and run into problems with them?

I went through all the Updating... docs and applied all that did 
not seem to have been applied already (some but not many were already 
in there) and mostly things seem to be working most ok but I keep 
coming across new problems.

Tonight, I discovered that the url, http://localhost:8917/demo/file
which works fine with the classic templates results in a templating 
error ('NoneType' object is not iterable) with the devel templates.

I am worried that when real people, who are much better at breaking 
things than I, start using the tracker, I am going to be deluged 
with a bunch of problems.  Would someone who has tried using the 
devel templates relate their experience please?

I'll submit a bug report for the Roundup documentation -- it really 
should point out that only the classic templates are well maintained
(and maybe responsive?  (I had to discover the hard way that the jinja
template are broken, they barf on east-asian characters)).
