In a template you may do something like:
<TMPL_IF user>
    <TMPL_IF user.name>
       <TMPL_VAR user.name.first> <TMPL_VAR user.name.last>
    </TMPL_IF>
    <TMPL_IF user.address>
        <TMPL_VAR user.address.street>
        <TMPL_VAR user.address.town>
    </TMPL_IF>
</TMPL_IF>
Normally your code would look something like:

if (length $user->name->first or $user->name->last ) {
   $tmpl->param ('user' => 1);
   $tmpl->param ('user.name' => 1);
   $tmpl->param ('user.name.first' => $user->name->first );
   $tmpl->param ('user.name.last' => $user->name->last );
}
if (length $user->address->street or $user->address->town) {
   $tmpl->param ('user' => 1);
   $tmpl->param ('user.address' => 1);
   $tmpl->param ('user.address.street' => $user->address->street);
   $tmpl->param ('user.address.town' => $user->address->town);
}
With the 'structure_vars' support you can do this:

$tmpl->param( 'user.name.first' = $user->name->first );
$tmpl->param( 'user.name.last' = $user->name->last );
$tmpl->param( 'user.address.street' = $user->address->street );
$tmpl->param( 'user.address.town' = $user->address->town );
Actually, you'd just do this:

$tmpl->param( user => $user );

And H::T would take care of calling the necessary methods for you.
