The title of sequence-item (provided it has one). If outside an #in,
'title' would refer to the title of the folder (if any), I think.

Is common_name an attribute of an id object? I think if it is, <!#--#var
common_name--> ought to work in the #in. At least that is how it appears
to work for me. But I admit I'm muddled about this too. Figure 2 on page
21 of the Zope Document Template Markup Language User's Guide (what a
title!) seems to confirm it, though.
