Gotcha with notes client before ND8 and the property broker

I'm working on our Composite Application. There are several views with propertyBroker code in the onselect event (a new event in ND8).
I moved that code to a scriptlib, made a call to a function in that scriptlib in the onSelect event, and referenced the scriptlib trough a use statement.
All working fine.

Until one of our admins called, that he got an error opening the view.
Turns out that it is ok to use the propertyBroker code in the onSelect of the view,  because pre-ND8 clients just skip that whole event. While adding that code to a scriptlib and reference it the pre-ND8 client wants to do something with the code, which it can't, because the PropertyBroker object is also new to ND8.

So in a mixed ND-pre8 en ND8 environment you can use the propertyBroker classes, but only when you have the code in the OnSelect event of the view.
