I'd like to interject here again the idea of creating a stable API for template variables, so that if people feel the need to template out there out theme, they can do so without having to re-engineer it mid-release. Any changes to this API would need to be well publicized between major releases.
In order to accomplish this, the following steps would need to occur:
Identify the variables demanded by each page Consolidate variables that are shared into centralized includes/objects Fill in any missing variables or generalize where appropriate Document
I am in favor of this idea, particularly if we emphasize consolidation, which I'm reading as increasing the consistency of the template variables that we expose. Who might be interested in working on this project?
