Ok, I implemented and committed that. Just call
o.set_write_protect(true)

These debug statements were added by K.O. on June 24, 2021. He should remove it.

08 Feb 2023, Stefan Ritt, Suggestion, histories capture 'ruy'

> The histories capture key events from 'r' 'u' 'y' and 'Escape' for various functions like rescaling etc. However, this also means that if we include an
editable modbvalue and a history in the same custom page then changing the modbvalue to something that includes 'ruy' is not possible.

Two other tings to consider:

28 Apr 2023, Stefan Ritt, Suggestion, Maximum ODB size

At the run start mlogger writes the ODB to the .mid file. This needs conversion (binary ODB -> XML ASCII) which can take time.

Ok, I implemented desktop notifications. In the MIDAS config page, you can now enable browser notifications for the different types of messages. Not sure
this works perfectly, but a staring point. So please let me know if there is any issue.

experiment name and directory usually used in the exptab file. This fixes

16 May 2023, Stefan Ritt, Bug Report, excessive logging of http requests
|
Maybe you remember the problems we had with a custom page in Japan loading it from TRIUMF. It took almost one minute since each RPC request took
about 1s round-trip. This got fixed by the modb* scheme where the framework actually collects all ODB variables in a custom page and puts them
into ONE rpc request (making the path an actual array of paths). That reduced the requests from 100 to 1 in the above example. Maybe the same
