#visit / #recurse with alternative macros / display formats

We have a couple of scenarios where we use the recursive templating support, 
with #visit or #recurse automatically calling a macro named @Dimensions.

Now, sometimes we want to / need to use the same template for multiple layouts. 
However, since the macro name is determined automatically, we need something 
smart.

1) Is there an obvious solution that we haven't seen?

We were thinking of using namespaces. However, we cannot refer to external 
templates, so we'd need to create macros in different namespaces from the same 
template, which doesn't seem possible:

[#if format == 'full']
   [#visit dimensions using full]
[#else]
   [#visit dimensions]
[#/if]

[#macro @Dimension]        [#-- Default namespace --]
...
[/#macro]

[#macro @full.Dimension]   [#-- Use namespace "full" --]
...
[/#macro]

2) Is this possible? Should it be?

Or, any other suggestions?
