That's not really true, python doesn't seem to care a lot about what's
in a name.
If you have periods, it just means you need things like:
getattr(getattr(getattr(globals(),'x.y'), 'z.a'), 'index.html')
as opposed to:
x_y.z_a.index_html
I think there's a strong case for index.html, especially since search
engines and lots of HTTP authoring tools (eg DreamWeaver) like/need
those periods to work properly.
We actually use index.html quite a lot, with a dtml method as index_html
which solves the problems:
<dtml-var index.html>
neat, huh? ;-)
cheers,
Chris
