dd or in other words, the name of the FIRST made instance... I tried to
expand the zz.__init__(self) to save the name of the generated
instance, but I think that the name must given as an extra parameter to
__init__(self, instanceName)

I hoped that there is a way to get it from the context :-|

thanks for all the other answers in the thread!
