Parsing, or rendering?

Well, you can put the full body of your template in a macro, and then  
use <#return/> in it. Of course, that doesn't exit from multiple  
levels of macros, includes, etc. For that functionality, <#stop/> is  
the way to go - you just need to make sure to catch and ignore the  
exception on the top-level (again, you might be able to use  
FreeMarker's <#attempt> ... <#recover> on top level for that).

What would it do? Continue with next iteration of a loop?
