Bugfixes
===
- Fix sorting of duplicate links (patch by Chromakode)
- fix traffic bug on main traffic page when it is the first of the month.
- toolbar redirects to comments page on self posts rather than generating the frame
- half-assed unicode handling in menus giving us bugs again. Switched to the whole-ass approach
- added Thing._byID36
- Support /help/foo/bar
* start showing embedded videos inside of an <iframe>. This allows us to
embed videos from external sites without having to trust their DOM security
Note that the media_object property on new links is now a dictionary,
but old ones will still be strings
potentially expensive queries
* don't look up default_subreddits in languages that we never store
* start respecting Subreddit.allow_top again
* fix assert syntax in cache.py
