Eric, the technique you're describing is 100% the same as the one used in generic
templates.


Arg. I should read more slowly, the introduction had let me think this would me much more complex than what I was proposing!

The only minor difference is that you're passing as parameter the name of
the template to be instantiated (and this could lead to some unwanted naming
resolution problems when templates are being imported), while when using generic
templates one passes just the unique node, which is uniquely matched by the template
to be instantiated.


That's a good point.

I don't think you are using the information that may be conveyed by what I have called the "hooks", though and I think there is, here, a possibility to pass useful info to the template in a less verbose way than using an additional parameter.



This is a good result, when the same technique has been described by two different sources completely independently.


Sure.

Thanks

Eric
