Hi Philippe,

Seaside2.8a1-mb.507 has the test, freshly baked.
It doesn't detect any subtle effect in Kom, as far as I could see.

Of course, I'm not "really sure" this breaks nothing, this is  
software after all.
I'm just confident, and a little more confident now that we have the  
test.

I did some research and found out that this code was there already in  
2.5a,
At that time (april 2004) WADocumentHandler was only used for supporting
the #style and #script methods. Now that it also supports pictures,  
sending
#text doesn't really make sense when the stream is on a byte array.  
The fact
that it was working although #text was sent is a reasonable  
indication that
sending #text was indeed useless.

Cheers,
Michel.
