Erm, ok, perhaps I should have said, given a function objectIds that is
valid within the current context.

The absense of a function is not a valid argument against DTML or in favour
of ZPT.

However, while we are on the subject, I am quite sick of ZPT telling me that
the property I am going to use is not currently available in the current
context, it is not up to my language to tell me when I should write my
transient fuctions in a self modifying application. (This is an example, but
it is a situation that has arrisen)
