+        This method is called when a CLIENT_OBJECT_UPDATE_FIELD

+        In fact, this method is exactly duplicated by the C++ method
+        cConnectionRepository::handle_update_field(), which was
+        written to optimize the message loop by handling all of the
+        CLIENT_OBJECT_UPDATE_FIELD messages in C++.  That means that
+        nowadays, this Python method will probably never be called,
+        since UPDATE_FIELD messages will not even be passed to the
+        Python message handlers.  But this method remains for
