Chameleon makes it pretty easy I'd say to use a site template:
<html metal:use-macro="load: ../master.pt">
<div metal:fill-slot="content">
<h1>${title}</h1>
...
</div>
</html>
You can also use ``metal:extend-macro`` to make a linear
specialization that keeps slots "fillable". For instance, you might
specialize your "master.pt" template into a "content.pt" template that
is then the basis of all content object views.
