Indeed, that was what I was wondering about too. Without actually
trying it out, my guess would be that it would indeed work, but at a
cost: it'd first parse all the 75 or so subtemplates and then throw all
but one of them away.
Of course, that's what one would have to do anyway, to get full link
table consistency.
It does seem to me that it might not be *that* inefficient, *if* the
page were somehow cached in its pre-languageconverted state but after
the expensive template parsing has been done. Does such a cache
actually exist, or, if not, could one be added with reasonable ease?
