Ok it seems my methode catches everything. So before committing the
stuff, I would like to be sure that I can remove all the TRIGGERS that
contains "on_cast python cast_self" ? The UP_TRIGGERS research does find

intended for minor updates (2.4->2.5) or was it also for maintenance
releases (2.5->2.5.1) or anything else ?
