Undefined behavor of extended iteration — at Version 1

Description (last modified by cmlenz)

Right now for foo.bar, blub['blah'] in something is undefined in genshi (it does nothing, especially no error) and for foo['a in b'] in bar breaks with a syntax error although it's valid python.

Because of my work on the sandboxed branch it's important that iterations do not modify existing objects because they could be persistent, thus shared among renderings. A quickfix would be changing the in split to a regex like this:

r([A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*(\s*,\s*[A-Za-z_][A-Za-z0-9_]*)*)\s+in

That would then automatically close the security problem of the sandbox branch too.
