Exactly. You've just described the "components" aspect of this idea, which was left
out of the
Paul's original post. A component is just a tag marked with a special attribute that
names it (and
its path, if it has been saved). It can contain other components, and can have
"slots" -- subtags
whose contents are not part of the component. There is also the concept of "modes",
which allows
you to have different versions of a template for different system states (shopping
cart empty vs.
non-empty) that radically affect presentation.

Yep :-)
