I have been thinking a lot about "Views", the positioning in the Forrest concepts and the naming.
I came to the conclusion that the best thing to do is to call them Forrest Templates. It's the templating system that is used to style the pages. At this point, one thing comes to mind... what makes this different from other templating systems? I mean, why not use [Velocity], [XSLTAL] or JXpath templates from Cocoon? Whichever system, the Forrest templates will be the first to be called for processing, and they will be resolved through the locationmap instead of the source files as now. Then, the template found will point to the source(s) needed, and again ask for those through the locationmap. The default templates will point to the sourcefiles with the same name, but users will be able to override this.
