I wonder if you could use Tip 3 in this article:
http://www.reddotcmsblog.com/3-quick-tips-for-opentext-web-content-management-or-reddot-cms
to achieve the desired result? Placeholder as insert file name only then
build the code you need in each instance around it?

Not sure if it'd work, just thinking out loud.

Cheers,

Gavin
