I am simply pointing out that a test which you said doesn't exist
above. I would rather use that infrastructure (which works for objects
other than views as well) that creating a new one specifically for
views. If we could build a better way to do this for all objects, that
would be great. That possibility has been discussed earlier.

That explains why we missed catching those bugs when they were added.
