Hello everybody!  I really should introduce myself before stating my
opinion.  But I'll keep this short and sweet --

I have been "trolling" python-dev for a while just to keep up on its
development and have never posted but I thought I'd share my opinion on
this thread simply because it's a simple topic :)

Before finishing the OP I had thought __python__ would be a good name.
So +1 to __python__ for me.  +0 to __root__ and __rootns__ and +0.5 to
__root_namespace__ (prefer explicitness to short/cryptic names).

The only other thing I can suggest is __python__ built __root__ works  
fine for me too.
