+.. note:: The names available for our use in a template are always
+ those that are present in the dictionary returned by the view
+ callable. But our templates make use of a ``request`` object that
+ none of our tutorial views return in their dictionary. This value
+ appears as if "by magic". However, ``request`` is one of several
+ names that are available "by default" in a template when a template
+ renderer is used. See :ref:`chameleon_template_renderers` for more
+ information about other names that are available by default in a
