So, repeat=2 would specify that it repeats the 'green' value, sort of
like array indexing? I don't know if it'd be very useful. Most of the
time you shouldn't care what order the items appear in the template and
you wouldn't really know if 'green' was last or not.

Repeat based on the value of another variable?
