In a recent thread on python-ideas[1] it was suggested that builtins be added as an argument to eval and exec. I'd prefer to do that and eliminate the name altogether. If not that I suggest something like __inject_builtins__. This implies it's a command to eval/exec, and doesn't necessarily reflect your current builtins (which are canonically accessible as an attribute of your frame.)
