This makes `MAIN' the Racket equivalent of Python's `__main__' thing.
As for the name, if you could promise me that this name isn't a slippery slope to a proliferation of all-uppercase variable names... (By convention, I use all-uppercase for pattern variables in macro transformers, and that is the best use of them I've found so far.)
As for adding Python/Ruby/Perl-esque automagical behavior and hacks, I trust that people will do so with judicious hesitation. Sometimes a hack is the most sensible way, but Racket is mostly not Hacket.
