Monte,

First of all, if it is properly documented, people will understand that "this control" is a bit of an exception.

Second, if you ask for ideas, you should not immediately reject everything I write, because you're scaring potential contributors to the discussion.

Why do you want "this me" to have sense outside a behavior script, if the only 
place where it will be used is in a behavior script?

I'm not really sure but that's the main reason I can think of for 'this 
behavior' being rejected ;-)

Apparently, "this group", "this control" etc. is not a synonym of "me" because currently "this group", "this 
control" etc. throws an execution error while "me" doesn't. That makes "this group", "this control" etc. a very feasible 
candidate.

Sorry, I didn't mean it's currently a synonym of me. I meant that if 
implemented I think people would naturally expect it to be a synonym of me. Or 
perhaps this group in the context of a control script would actually be the 
containing group reference...
