In the rpartition case, that would be (rest, sep, upto) which seems a 
bit cryptic.

We need some choice of words that clearly mean:
 * the chopped-off snippet (guaranteed to not contain the separator)
 * the separator if found
 * the unchopped remainer of the string (which may contain a separator).

Of course, if a clear example is added, the choice of words becomes much 
less important.
