      will *not* call the method, it will just try to insert it. The
      result will be not a list of objects but a string such as
      '<Python Method object at 8681298>'. If you ever see results
      like this, there is a good chance that you're returning a
      method, rather than calling it.

         <dtml-var "objectValues"> will insert a suitable ersatz representation like the string "<Python Method object
         at 8681298>". This usually will not be visible in a browser since a browser treats anything between "<" and
         ">" that it does not recognize as HTML as unknown tag, but it will be visible, when you view the source.
         If you really want to see the ersatz repr, <dtml-var "objectValues" html_quote> delivers "&lt;Python Method
         object at 8681298&gt;" which a browser shows.
