Actually, I'm starting to think that having $ in front of variables is
better. {{$varname}} would print the variable, and then you can refer to
them in if statements in the same manner.

What does everyone think about consistency of using : to delimit
commands? In the above example there is : after 'else' but not after
'/if', is that OK? Should 'else' not have :?

What about named attributes for commands, i.e.
{{section: name = header}} instead of {{section: header}}?
