I REALLY like Thingy!  And a very Pythonesque choice it would 
be ... :^)  Python Thingies and Perl Thingies.  How nice to be 
so connotationless!  ... but maybe not so connotationless ... 
recalling the usage of "thingy" in the Python, Monty oeuvre 
("YOU know ... THINGY!!") ... you might want to consider

Tame Snake Sex, and 
Wild Snake Sex, 

so then you have 
Documents, Templates, and Sex

Python Sex vs. Perl Sex? ... wow, just think of it!  
Of course, alibis about working late would have to be 
carefully worded ...

Sorry ... it's late on a Friday ... but I DO like Thingy!  :^)

Cheers,
-- Steve.
