I've been using jinja2 lately, because it's favored by Salt.
http://saltstack.org
There is so much wisdom behind the Salt team that I look to them
for best practice recommendations.
I've been wanting to slip in a plug for Salt, there you go. Of course there
are many very good template systems out there.
My naive take on templates support would be something like:
@template setup.py
name = '{{data.name}}'
...
project foo
data = {'name':'FooProject'}
c.render('@setup.py', data)
A node would declare a template, the template name would be available
to send data for rendering. Maybe the rendered result would be in a vr
pane, maybe a child of the node declaring the data.
I suppose different rendering engines could be accommodated via
@jinja2 setup.py
...
@mako .bashrc
...
