In re: the "magic", it seems to me that you could use a mock object and get the required info from it.

  In terms of the implementation, it's kind of trivial to implement the "magic", but it would be both confusing and inconsistent, see below. e.g. imagine a case where you'd want to call datetime.strptime, partially initializing it at the moment of conversion definition. at the moment it is: c.call_func( datetime.strptime, c.item("updated"), "%Y-%m-%d" ) but it's unclear to me how would the "magic" approach deal with the case above.

    Replace your current namespace with a mock object? You can eval or exec code with any dictionary-flavored object, and mocks can imitate dicts. edit: no, you can't in Python 3.. I'll try to have a closer look later today.
