This is close to what I want, I think. Where does the "@mailer_name = caller_locations(1,1)[0].label " go? In a controller? In a view?
What I really want is to not have to modify the source modules that are invoking the rendering but, instead, have the _header.html.erb source module dynamically say "I got invoked by root.html.erb". Things get a bit more dicey, I think, if the sequence is root.html.erb appllication.html.erb (authomagically invoked) root.html.erb Thoughts?
