[Zope3-dev] "here" vs "context" for templates in content space

Templates used for views have a context variable for refering to
the context of the view, the thing being viewed.

Templated pages, which are templates used in content space, like
traditional zpt templates, have a "context" variable for refering to
the folder containing the template.

We decided to use "context" in both cases, but the meaning of "context"
is a little different in the two cases. I wonder if it would be better
to use "here" to make things more familiar for Zope 2 users?
