Thanks, Jeni.  This is what I thought but wanted to make sure.

The reason that I didn't want to do this is that there is a lot of common
code before the node-specific code, which I snipped in the example I gave.
I have moved this into a separate named template which is called from each
node-specific template, but it would have been more aesthetic if I could
have used an inline "choose" construct.
