A good term is really hard to find.

But, in Zope we have two terminology to do the same thing
context - in Python Scripts
here    - in Page Templates

It does't matter how the term is good or not, but I think
Zope should use the same term.
Do you know why 'here' is use in Page Templates instead of
'context'?
