Yes, we have different naming strategies that have been adopted by 
the external inset code and by the converters code. The former uses 
"nice" names like $$contents, $$basename whilst the latter uses stuff 
like $$i, $$o, $$b. 

I chose to name it $$s because this symbol is used only by the 
converters (now that the external inset uses the converters to do the 
conversion --- in my tree at least).

I am quite happy to change to the external inset style but it should 
be done consistently and will break any user-defined converter. I 
suspect that there are more converters than user-defined external 
templates...
