This is not going to be handy once the block is composed by a large dtml block. I wonder if dtml-var shouldn't support the syntax I've described above.
I suggest instead using a PythonScript, and using the DTML class that you can import from the Products.PythonScripts.standard module.
You can use this to render DTML on the fly, as you wish.
I guess it would be better to allow constructs as: <dtml-var "table('main','col')"> <dtml-var "font('standard')">Some text</dtml-var> </dtml-var> Where 'table' and 'font' are PythonScripts that return the implicit blocks passed to them (these blocks may have a default variable name in the expression's namespaces) enclosed by the correspondent html blocks, with the format ('main, 'standard') mapped to html attributes/values using some dictionaries. This could help to separate logic and presentation in dtml code with a minor syntax addition.
