We can solve this problem by using JavaScript "object path" as opposed to a 
variable name.

So instead of:
<template register="my-button" interface="MyButton">
</template>

We allow:
<script>
var my = {views:{MyButton: ~}};
</script>
<template register="my-button" interface="my.views.MyButton">
</template>

While this requires some variable to be exposed on the global scope, libraries 
and frameworks do this already, and authors could use document.register to 
avoid that altogether if they really wanted.
