Hi,

I'd like to propose the following best practice: to test for Object
existence in class sheets. For example:

#set($obj = $doc.getObject("XWiki.XWikiUsers"))
#if($obj)

...

#else

I'll add here:
1 User sheet

   This stylesheet must be applied on a document containing a
XWiki.XWikiUsers object.
#end

If you're all ok I'll add it to the dev guide on http://www.xwiki.org/
xwiki/bin/view/DevGuide/BestPractices (I'll remove what's in there
and send each best practice separately to this list for agreement as
this is old stuff).

Thanks

More, I'd reverse the two branches, as the document title will otherwise be $obj.name. Because not all users will fill in the title field.
