Why not use the datadir for this as well?

Additionally, instead of tossing it in another file, you could just put it 
in a dict in the config file itself:

py["glossary"] = {
   "{item1}": '<a href="blahblah">item1</a>',
   "{item2}": '<a href="blahblah2">item2</a>'
}

Then it'll get compiled into python byte code and you don't have to load
and parse an additional data file.
