This is one of the worst bits - the get_format() method on the DataView base class actually modifies args, including removing keys! 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:

https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/77a904fea14f743560af9cc668146339bdbbd0a9/datasette/views/base.py#L81-L105

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

https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/77a904fea14f743560af9cc668146339bdbbd0a9/datasette/views/base.py#L131-L157

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

https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/77a904fea14f743560af9cc668146339bdbbd0a9/datasette/views/base.py#L206-L219

To streaming CSV responses: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/77a904fea14f743560af9cc668146339bdbbd0a9/datasette/views/base.py#L286-L308

To handling SQLite exceptions: https://github.com/simonw/datasette/blob/77a904fea14f743560af9cc668146339bdbbd0a9/datasette/views/base.py#L514-L526

And a ton more. It' s a big mess.
