Sure.
There is only one caveat: that two positional arguments need to
be passed for recursive calls of DTML objects ("None" and "_").

There is no need. Newbies do not need to know *all* special cases
only the most essential ones.
The myriads of TALES expression types are almost as bad the
"sequence-item" special cases.
