Probably late in the game, esp. for an outsider, but I read the terminology discussion with interest. FWIW, I do like Philip's use of context, though I feel that it is a very generic word that may clash with many application-level classes... For that reason, I also liked "scope" a lot, though it was an... expension of that term's usual meaning beyond namespaces. Anyway, what really struck me all along is that, when reading the keyword "with", I always felt that I would replace it with "within", which imho fits the context/scope terminology better. Thus "within" a "context", we do certain actions... which are fenced with __begincontext and __endcontext. (Oh, yes, fences... What was the original precise computer science meaning of that word, again?)
