@TonyM in short this allows you to completely override and replace any part 
of the ViewTemplate that you want to.
Look at Joshua's example for $:/config/ViewTemplate/Body from above.

[tag[$:/tags/Macro]then[$:/plugins/joshuafontany/core/ui/ViewTemplate/body/
macro]]
[tag[Glossary]then[$:/plugins/joshuafontany/silatglossary/ui/ViewTemplate/
body]]
[match[Test]then[$/plugins/joshuafontany/core/ui/ViewTemplate/body/TEST]]

For the subtitle you would use similar filters in 
$:/config/ViewTemplate/subtitle
