    Component/s: core
       Priority: Major  (was: Critical)

Not critical. Magnolia runs just fine without this feature ;-)

> Make usage of sub templates more flexible

> We have the possibility to select an image from disk (using "File" control) 
> and from DMS (using "uuidLink") control. 
> In most cases we would like to do some image processing (e.g. image scaling). 
> For that purpose the image has to be loaded in it's own JSP/Servlet. 
> Currently there are three possibilities to run a sub script:
> - virtualURL
> - SubTemplates
> - NodeDataTemplate
> The best solution WOULD be "nodeDataTemplate", because it calls the sub 
> script on content within paragraphs, which SubTemplate does not (path has to 
> be EXACTLY the same, with different extensions). The virtualURL is tricky, 
> because you will have to know in advance which pages will use images which 
> need their own processing.
> Unfortunately the "nodeDataTemplate" works only for control "File"!
> Well, to be competitive with other CMS we need to have a way to run sub 
> scripts in an "independent" way. This could be achieved as follows:
> 1) Define a content node with a property "selector" (the part between handle 
> and extension) and a property "path". The idea is to map a selector to a JSP 
> or Servlet. This could be e.g. selector="jpg.640.480" (or with wild cards: 
> "jpg.*.*" and path "/templates/global/image_scaling.jsp".
> 2) Extend the "nodeDataTemplate" functionality to additional controls, 
> especially "uuidLink".
