cheers ;-)

I want to implement a per document view. This view extracts html
snippets from a snippet rep. This way user from apache forrest can
implement their own view for each document or use the default view
without knowing xsl.
sample for a view:
<forrest:view
xmlns:forrest="http://apache.org/forrest/templates/1.0" type="xhtml">
<forrest:contract name="meta"/>
<forrest:hook name="container">
<forrest:hook name="branding">
<forrest:contract name="projectlogo"/>
<forrest:contract name="grouplogo"/>
<forrest:contract name="searchbox"/>
<forrest:contract name="nav-main"/>
</forrest:hook>
<forrest:hook name="spacer" />
<forrest:contract name="nav"/>
<forrest:contract name="content"/>
</forrest:hook>
<forrest:contract name="feedback"/>
</forrest:view>
pipe:
index.html -> requested page
index.xml -> content for the page
index.fv -> styling information about the page (as forrest:view)
Through the prepare.include.* and prepare.xhmtl.* I am calling html
snippets from a rep based on index.fv.
On the final stylesheet I am then creating the page like
<xhtml>
<head>
<xsl:call-template name="getHead"/>
<style type="text/css">
<xsl:call-template name="getCss"/>
</style>
</head>
</xhtml>
cheers for any suggestions
