Re: [Zope] tino's <dtml-in> improvements Why, DC?

<dtml-var expr="somefunc(sequence_item)">

instead of

<dtml-var expr="somefunc(_['sequence-item'])">

Though I readily agree that Python Scripts are the proper place for logic, the example above shows that there is often still a need for some code in support of the presentation. Why not make it a bit easier?

Good py-engineering is important, but what is also VERY IMPORTANT is to attract more Zpeople to use Zope! I have a few times (not many but a few) seen sad faces on people when they see this sequence-item "problem". What they don't quickly understand is how fantastic all of those sequence-things are! And, beginners DO NOT use python scripts when they are dubbed into Zope, they use Zope. Peter
