I guess I have two minor objections.  One is that _q_exports was once
simply a list of Python identifiers to be published, but now is
something more convoluted and error-prone.  For example, staring at the
following, it is not inherently obvious that the first tuple item is in
URL space, while the second is in identifier space.

   _q_exports = ["foo", "bar", ("my_name", "your_name"), "baz"]

My other objection is that the extension assumes a one-to-one mapping
from URL to identifier space, and so is adding complexity without
solving the problem generally.

I'd prefer that the mechanics of Quixote remain simple.  It's easy
enough to build the mapping function on top of what already exists.
