Thanks Sam. I understand now. It's essentially the same thing Puneet suggested last 
night. At that point it was just a matter of whether it was better to have "<tmpl_var 
selected>" resolved with each iteration of the loop or to test it as a boolean and, if 
true emit " selected". It sounded like there wasn't much difference except it might 
look less messy without the test (letting it resolve with each iteration).

Setting up my hypothetical reserved array name "@__selected__" would be the same as 
the single line of code you used. Just an array of 0 (or undef) or 1 indicating if the 
row should process my hypothetical lable "<TMPL_LOOP_CHECKED>".

I was just trying to think of some way to simplify the Template syntax. Some way to 
move the testing for this commonly emitted string into H::T so the loop structure 
might look cleaner. But, it sounds like the result of this idea wouldn't look much 
different than just letting a TMPL_VAR resolve with each iteration. (Sorry).

I don't understand. I don't have any elements or attributes in my Perl code. It's all 
contained in templates. I feel like I'm missing a point of sarcasm?
