That is on the stable branch? I think I solved that on the default 
branch in 
https://kallithea-scm.org/repos/kallithea/changeset/330c671dd451#kallitheamodeluserpy_o194 
. Can you test and confirm that? Then I will put just that part of the 
change on the stable branch.

(We use the default branch in production.)
