Thanks, Derek and Jeppe, your responses were very helpful. I
implemented Jeppe's solution and added my own snippet tag within
_viewTemplate. Unfortunately, I spent the whole day trying to figure
out how pass the current CRUDified object to my snippet. Do I retrieve
it in _viewTemplate from S.params and add an attribute to the snippet
tag? Or just retrieve it from S in the snippet? I think I'm missing
something fundamental with the S object and snippets. As you can tell,
I'm very new to Lift! Any advice is much appreciated.
