I'm not opposed to allowing things to alter the output template
easily; I always envisioned this kind of thing, which is why I use
@name-of-action rather than a keyword like members. So, you would do
@timestamp { <grammar.name>... }
in the grammar file... I am pretty sure these automatically get
stored in a hash table and templates could then ask for
<actions.timestamp> or whatever. The dynamic binding and template
mechanism of ST allows you to refer to attributes within the template
you specify as you see above.
Give it a try. my guess is it will just work.

PS hooray for ST ;)
