Just to be clear, the dotted-notation is simply that, a notation. The interface to req.get_options() is not changing is it? I also think that a listing of all the reserved or mod_python options in the docs for PythonOption is a very good idea. And it should definitely be mentioned that the entire mod_python.* names are reserved, and that applications or frameworks are encouraged to implement their own prefix/namespaces for their own options. -- Deron Meranda
Documentation for PythonOption
We are slowly acquiring a number of reserved PythonOption keywords which should likely be collected in one place so we don't end up with any name collisions. Does the PythonOption page in section 5.4.10 seem most appropriate? eg. http://www.modpython.org/live/current/doc-html/dir-other-po.html I'm thinking of something fairly simple - just a list of reserved keywords with a reference link to the appropriate section of the docs.

Documenting them in one central spot is probably a good idea. As far as collisions go, if we can sort out: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-127 and then document that mod_python prefix is reserved and that users are encouraged to always use their own distinct prefix, shouldn't be as big an issue.
