Templates should probably be considered as a tool that allows you to generate quite complex rules with only minor coding. Of course, the more coding the more rigid (and less agile) the solution will become. Actually, this will split your data in two separate layers, the original data and the transformed data and will burden you with the overhead of the transformation code. However, there might be a valuable trade-off in going for this approach.
