Thanks for the tip. The H::T plugin looks very interesting. I haven't had a chance to see if it has support for H::T::Expr support as well, which would be needed in my case. But I suspect it might be relatively easy to add. The downside is that this is a filter, and in my case would require some work on the backend to modify my pre_process & post_process templates to include the necessary commands to load the plugin and start the [% FILTER %] section. Not a big deal, but a more comprehensive solution would be nice as well.
