Description

Currently the template management is done through the use of the "template" property of the AttributeContext interface.
But the fact is that a "template" can be, in fact, a "real" attribute, that has to be managed in a special way.
In particular it may have a "type" or an associated "renderer".
Currently the template rendering is done through request dispatching (include or forward), while other attributes are renderer by "renderers".
If the "template" concept is transformed into a "template attribute", a renderer can be associated.
