Right.  It isn't clear yet in which cases ZPT would get mad referring to 
macros from an object with a dot in its id.  Most of the time the path 
expression isn't Python, so "here/main_template.html/macros/master" 
isn't an issue.

I just put a site map page up at:

   http://new.zope.org:15080/ZopeOrg/sitemap.html

My current thinking is that the sitemap is under 100 entries, 
constituting a hand-crafted organization of permanent links which people 
can count on.  I'm willing to change my mind, though.

(Right now that page is just a repetition of the sidebar.  Later it will 
be a longer list in each section, perhaps short explanations beside each 
entry, etc.)
