actually, patching trac core to do this, IMHO, is a worse solution.
That's what the "provider" interfaces are for.    In reference to the
"better solution" comment: I don't think you'd want an
ITemplateStreamFilter, but promote your solution to something else
here.  Although, the solution you are working on has the merits of
being one of the easier solutions, and might end up being more
flexible to leverage to other tasks as well.

Either way, I am curious to see your solution if you make it public.
