Well, thats the idea. It needs lots of love and testing, though.

methods return dicts and those dicts are passed into the namespace of
the template.

Well, most of the credit goes to Rick Copeland, since he hacked most of
the code for the new controller.

You'll have to ask Rick where he came up with the idea, all I know is
that I find it to be extremely useful!
