# The problem is that we end up at this point when an event
# which has been redacted is pulled out of the database by
# _enqueue_events, because _enqueue_events needs to check the
# redaction before it can cache the redacted event. So obviously,
# calling get_event to get the redacted event out of the database
# gives us an infinite loop.
#
# For now (quick hack to fix during 0.99 release cycle), we just
# go and fetch the relevant row from the db, but it would be nice
# to think about how we can cache this rather than hit the db
# every time we access a redaction event.
#
# One thought on how to do this:
# 1. split _get_events up so that it is divided into (a) get the
# rawish event from the db/cache, (b) do the redaction/rejection
# filtering
# 2. have _get_event_from_row just call the first half of that
