Okay, I think I got your question wrong.

The wrapper system puts a box around every one of its children. From 
the 'outside', the box reacts exactly as it always has (being the 
point).

wrap.xwt:

<redirect target="inner" wrap="true"/>
<template>
	// $inner[0] returns wrapper box around first child
	// thisbox[0] returns first child (box *inside* the wrapper)
	<box id="inner"/>
</template>


user.xwt:

<template>
	// $a == $w[0]
	// $b == $w[1]
	// $c == $w[2]

	<wrap id="w">
		<box id="a"/>
		<box id="b"/>
		<box id="c"/>
	</wrap>
</template>


Does that make sense?
