I think in Cheetah it's .capitalize and .escape (details may vary).
The elegance of the Cheetah way is how they map Python code
to placeholders. Every method and every field of an object can
be addressed in a Cheetah template.

But it's of course a neat idea to combine PHP and Python given
the overwhelming PHP predominance at ISPs.

That depends on your code. You can easily write classes and
instantiate objects that are immediately understood by Python-
unaware readers such as customer, order, love, hate, life,
death, ... :) There's no need to expose the standard library.
