Wrong...:-)
What you do is this:
Style.doBuild()
{
doStyle()
}
CustomClass.doStyle() extends MyClass
{
// do style code here
}
Now, when a request for CustomClass is called, the doBuild() method is
invoked which then invokes the CustomClass.doStyle() method.
This is how all the WebMacroSite* stuff works...it is very clean OO
stuff...and VERY powerful. There is plenty of examples of this with Turbine
now for WebMacro...doing this for other template system should be pretty
painless, but an understanding of core Turbine stuff and OO concepts is
definitely needed...

I agree.
