If you go through the effort of looking into python and zope reserved words, do yourself an enormous favor, and also do a little googling on naming conventions for those languages (regarding caps, underscores, etc.), as well.
You can use 'legal' variable names that will be _very_ confusing six months or a year from now. If you're at the early stages, then adopting naming standards which are in common use, will make code matainance easier, and will make understanding other well formulated code, that much easier to understand.
Good advice, Dan: reminds me that I know this from my work in SGML/XML document things but hadn't transferred the knowledge. Mark
