use e.g.
{{{
#!div style="font-size: 80%"
Code highlighting:
{{{#!python
default_name = tpl.get('ALIAS', tpl['BACKEND'].rsplit('.', 2)[-2])
}}}
}}}

instead
{{{
#!div style="font-size: 80%"
Code highlighting:
{{{#!python
default_name = tpl['BACKEND'].rsplit('.', 2)[-2]
}}}
}}}

I have a backend "service.core.jinja2.engine.Jinja2" and current code
returns "'''engine'''" as default_name for this name
