If you have a type that requires a format string, the proper place to
pass that string in is not the toSElem method. Rather, one should
construct a ToSElem instance that wraps the item in an (STSH .
STShow) constructor. The item itself then should be made an instance
of StringTemplateShows, with an appropriate
stringTemplateFormattedShow method. It's a bit of plumbing, I'll
grant, but allows for setting the format where it should be -- in the
template itself.
If, on the other hand, you simply want to apply the locale to the
attribute as you pass it in to the template, then you can just pack
them together in a tuple or a record, and write a ToSElem instance
for that.
Cheers,
S.

Sterling,
the toSElem function of ToSElem does not take a parameter that
allows specification of e.g. the locale that shall be used for
rendering a specific attribute. If one wants to change this, one
also has to change setAttribute and the like. Do you have any plans
to extend HStringTemplate in this way?
