- `DatabaseView`
- `DatabaseDownload` (just so the permissions checks can be called)
- `QueryView` - which isn't routed to directly, it's called from `DatabaseView` if `?sql=` is available and `TableView` for canned queries
- `RowTableShared` which is the base class for `TableView` and `RowView`","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",1170144879,

Really confusing: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/77a904fea14f743560af9cc668146339bdbbd0a9/datasette/views/base.py#L454-L482

Then `BaseView` has some surprising responsibilities. It has a utility helper for checking multiple permissions at once:

And its own render method that adds extra stuff to the template context and handles the rel: alternate header:

Then `DataView` does all sorts of weird stuff - from handling database hashes (which I want to remove, see #647):

And a ton more. It' s a big mess.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",1170144879,
