You might want to try writing an inclusion tag:
http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/templates_python/#inclusion-tags
They are much simpler to write than template tags, and more "designer
friendly." They let you write a separate template that gets rendered
inside of another template

Write views which select more data.

Another option is to use AJAX to populate the "building block" areas.
e.g. (Using JQuery)
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#block1').load('/views/list_users');
$('#block2').load('/views/latest_articles');
});

Not clear on what you mean by "more robust views". Can you please
elaborate?
Regarding the term "views", I do mean actually invoking the python
function via the url routing system. I would settle for calling a
regular python function that returns some html snippet but I think the
existing views

You either want:
1. More robust views, or
2. Some
Thanks for the quick reply!
I realize that this is an option but it seems to me more natural to
control the content from the template so a designer can build views
using "lego-blocks", without having to tweak the view.

In the view.py code that you have calling your
frontpage_template.html, you should put your code to query the
database and generate your user list and articles. You would then
pass these to your html template via:
return render_to_response('frontpage_template.html',
I am trying to find a way to include a view in a template. The view
generates an html snippet based on a DB query + another template. In
pseudocode what I am trying to achieve is:
frontpage_template.html:
{{% include header.html %}}
{{% load /views/list_users %}}
{{% load /views/latest_articles
