R. David Murray added the comment:

In case anyone is wondering, I'm leaving this open in case Michael thinks it is 
a good idea to add some sort of documentation note about this.  I'm not sure it 
is, because this is fundamental to the way Python works.  On the other hand, I 
can't think of any specific manual or tutorial section we could direct someone 
to to get an explanation of what is going on.

This one comes close: 
http://docs.python.org/2/faq/programming.html#how-can-my-code-discover-the-name-of-an-object
 but doesn't tell the whole story since it doesn't cover pickle.
