The situation:
I have a "main_template" that does the looks of the site, with a "main" slot
where the content goes, much like the standard templates give you.
Now I have objects that behave similarly and share some interface
components, so I figured I could try to create another macro, with another
slot to fit inside that "main" slot, that all of the objects/content types
could re-use.
So I end up doing what I said below ... But that doesn't work :(
I've come up with an alternative for now, though it's not as elegant as this
I think ... But it'll have to do.
If you care to keep reading, the details:
main_template:
<... some html ...>
<... some html ...>
shared template:
<... some html ...>
<... some html ...>
Object specific template:
<... some html ...>
This works without errors, except that only the first macro "shared" comes
out, the "master" one never gets processed :( I would've expected this to be
recursive ... Ah well :(
Thanks!

Macros are decided at compile time so that you can ask a template (which is
not called) for its macros::
here/main_template/macros/master
The code above would have macros being created in some other template at the
time this macros is used, and I cannot imagine how they would be available.
Why is a macro with whatever uses your common interfaces not suitable?
You scenario is too vague for any other advice.
