The only thing I would suggest is using parenthesis :)
#foreach( $item in $data.getList)
...
#end
And yes, you can wrap this in a VM :
#macro( mytable $list )
<table>
#foreach( $i in $list )
<tr><td>$i.col1</td><td>$i.col2</td></tr>
#end
</table>
#end
and use
#mytable( $data.getList )
but really, that doesn't buy you much until you want to start doing nice
formatting, which VMs really help with.
