That depends on which kind of tapset you are talking about.  I refer
to the taxonomy I posted.  A script-library type tapset thing would
use variable names in the basic script-side namespace, because that is
what those tapset pieces are: scripts.  A translator-modification type
tapset could impose whatever naming conventions it prefers, since it
could hook into the name resolution logic within the translator.
