Trying to show an Edit View if you can't Edit has horrible results

(Bug, Closed -> Can't Repro, Priority: High, Test Status: No automated tests yet , Reported By Bad Link: Thing 3y284oe not found, )
Summary: As reported by Eric: When I go to an Editing Sample and click "Edit", it displays some of that Thing's properties around 50 times in a row (slightly more indented each time) before giving an error
The error appears to be some sort of recursion problem in QL, undoubtedly having to do with hitting the _edit function when I can't edit the Thing.
An example page that displays the problem can be found here

Justin: this no longer repros for me. I know that it happened as described when Eric originally reported it, but it seems to have gone away. (Not astonishing: there have been many changes in the Editor code, so it may have been a dumb bug that got addressed somewhere.)
