It'd be nice to be able to specify an altenate template file to be used for some pages. For example, I'd like most of my pages to use page.tmpl but I want my front page to be formatted in some unique way, so I'd like it to use a separate front.tmp template instead. I'm not sure what syntax to use for this, (\[[template]] seems to be taken for another purpose already). Perhaps something like \[[page-template front]] ?). Joey provided a nice suggestion for implementing this feature, ("I would probably add a hook that allowed overriding the default template constuction and returning a template object"). I did start looking into that, but finally I wimped out and just put the following hack into the genpage() function in Render.pm: if ($page eq 'index') { $template->param(suppresstitle => 1); } That lets me use a in my template to get the effect I want. I don't think that's anything that upstream should pick-up as is, (maybe with an appropriate configuration option, but then again allowing for per-page template selection would be more powerful anyway). But I'm happy enough now that I probably won't pursue implementing this feature further myself. But I'd still happily switch to using this feature if someone were to implement it.
