Yeah, sent it without checking that. Fixing in V4, no issues.

OK. I agree, and disagree, :-). Now that you mention here, I will resend
with your request applied. The reasoning is to, yes, keep the
consistency. However, not to be the same as .get_trend, but in fact, to
keep same behavior as the code as it is currently. The thing is
.get_temp is required field, while .get_trend is not. So, checking for
required fields in the registration makes more sense than checking it
only when the field is needed.

However, as I mentioned, to keep the same behavior, before and after the
patch, it makes sense we keep the checks as they are. I will send v4
with this amendment.

OK. For the sake of this change only, I agree. However, I might be
sending patches on top of this one to keep the checks of required fields in the
registration itself.
