Chill, I was eating dinner.
AFAICT the #stext macro isn't set up to be a multi-line macro (like #sform is),
which I think would preclude the use of nested macros like the form tag uses.
The problem is that if it's defined as a block tag then there's no way to use
it as an inline tag. I'm not really up on Velocity anymore, but I think this is
something inherent (at least up to the version S2.0.14 is using, 1.4?).
Unless someone w/ more Velocity knowledge steps up I'd have to say that for now
I'd work around it (when possible) by creating the message in the action and
exposing it that way. Not ideal, but neither is making #stext a block tag.
