dtml-let cannot enable REQUEST.set to die out, because it is a
tag that requires nesting.  A namespace dtml-set (with some
other name so as to not stomp on those people whose code already
uses dtml-set) might do more.

On the other hand, just switching to ZPT is probably better <grin>.

I think I'm going to stay agnostic on whether or not a REQUEST
stuffing dtml-set belongs in the core.
