If it can go wrong, it will.  If it can be abused, it will.  We don't
want the ability to extend Velocity syntax via templates, since this
would become the seductively easy route.  The easiest route is not
always the correct one, however.  The provided method for extending the
templating engine is through Java classes, which works out quite a bit
better in the long run.  =)
