So I've learned a rule of thumb - if I'm writing DTML and it isn't flowing then I really ought to be using Python. PythonMethods are nice but, as they stand, you only have access to built-in functions. So if you want to import modules you have to resort to External Methods. [Am I talking nonsense here? My empirical experience is that I can use string functions in a PythonMethod but not, say, stuff from the time module. Neither string nor time are built-in though ..... so why one and not the other?]
The point of these reflections:
* PythonMethods ought to be a high priority IMHO.
