I also wonder if the ability to take advantage of Rails partials in  
Pages/Snippets/Parts would be useful to Extension designers. It would  
primarily support creating models and tags which produce a kind of  
'widgety' thing - not necessarily for public/generic consumption, but  
for allowing Radiant Extension builders (developers working for CMS  
users) to encapsulate something, leveraging the power of Ruby/Rails  
while still protecting the CMS user from having the full power of Erb.

But are we going away from the 'original intent'? There's fascinating  
conversation about the meaning of a piece of literature: is it found  
in the text, in the author, or in the reader?
