Description

For example if you have a list / resultset or something, and you want to split that by 1000, then its not super easy to do.

The tokenizer language has that but it assume a token is in place. But if the body is list / collection, we should be able to group them.

Maybe a function on simple language?

<split>
  <simple>${collate(${body}, 1000)}</simple>
  ...
</split>

Now its to come up with a good function name.

Also the body could be implied, so its just

<split>
  <simple>${collate(1000)}</simple>
  ...
</split>
