If using a partial can cause shadowing then some namespacing should come into play in case e.g. node and node-prime with modified values are both passed in.

I'd rather leave this up to the user. For example, if you have a template

template "/path"

  variables :ports => [8000, 8080]

end

And a partial:

render "my_partial", :variables => {:ports => [4000]}

Then I think you specified your intent, and chef should respect it.
