Hi Mathew, (This is the same Josh as @highgatecross. My e-mail there is down, so I subscribed from another address. :->)
That's exactly what I'm looking for. I'm dealing with legacy code which has highly nested includes in the templates. From what I've been able to tell, I don't think the original coder relied on implicit undefness. My main concern is that I want to be warned if there are subs that I ought to be calling (to fill in template parameters in things like headers and footers). It's especially easy to overlook when the tmpl_var's are used for "hidden" information, like URLs and hidden form fields. Where can I find your patch?
