This actually returns the object itself.  For example:

<dtml-with this>
  <p>Now the top item of the namespace stack is the equivalent to the
python     convention of 'self'.  'this' by name or "this()" in an
expression, if         called in a DTML method, 'this' will return the
container of the method.
</dtml-with>
