[PEAK] Templates with layout

Mon Jun 6 10:45:43 EDT 2005

Lets have some simple PWT template "repr.pwt":

        <html this:is="page">
            <div content:replace="."/>
        </html>

It correctly shows repr() of the underlying object. Everything is OK untill 
we try to use some layout:

    repr.pwt:

        <html with:page-layout="@@layout">
            <div this:is='body' content:replace="."/>
        </html>

    layout.pwt:

        <html this:is="page">
            <div this:replace="/params/body"/>
        </html>
        
Then we end in infinite recursion, because current object in repr.pwt
is not underlying object but parsed layout.pwt template. Workaround
is to use ``content:replace=".."'' in repr.pwt but I am almost sure
that this is not intended behaviour. Following patch solve the problem
but may have some undesired side effects that I am not aware of now.
