Yes, there was a lot of convoluted thought in the larger
thread of  
Standardized template API which got intermingled with a
related  
proposal to standardize common parts used within template
languages  
themselves. We're currently steering back to just
standardizing  
*using* the various templates, and saving the much more
complex issue  
of their internals for a later point.

Cheers,
Ben
