Until know we always suggested to use a scripting language (PHP) for 
such kind of templates. But people were demanding this kind of template 
support. ;-) 
What we want know will be an addition and you will not be forced to use 
it. 
And we discussed to be able to merge the templates permanently, so 
instead of the above you will get the template. Or make it 
configurable, so when you insert a template you could:
- add a mergepoint
- merge permanently
- add a mergepoint  in a scripting language.
