Ah, but a script-per-pt returning a dictionary of data needed
by the pt is, I believe, considered Good Practice by Evan, and
it makes sense to me (a lot of sense).  Keep the logic
out of the pt as much as possible!  It should actualy simplify
your verification code, since you'll be able to do it using
clean python syntax rather than clunky dtml.
