The goal is very simple: The edit form posts to itself. If a POST is  
received, I want to edit the content item with the values from  
itself. Very same principle as we have now, with the exception that  
the current setup looks into the REQUEST to find button names to  
decide on what to do.

Again, I'm working with a class Tres gave me which has a POST method  
on the editing view class.
