I don't use the name self. I use whatever the first argument name is,
found by this line of python code:
instance_name = calling_frame.f_code.co_varnames[0]

I'll bring this up for input from PyPy and IronPython people, but I
don't know any Jython people. Are we yet letting the alternative
implementations influence so strongly what we do in CPython? I'm not
saying "screw them", just pointing out that there is always a way to
implement anything, and if its some trouble for them, well, 2.6 or 3.0
targetting is far down the road for any of them yet.
I'll add a reference implementation I have to the second draft of the PEP.
