This is not an unreasonable approach, however, if you take
this approach, you will lose the automagic calling of methods.

If zoot is a (non-document-template) method, then

  <!--#if zoot-->

is the same as:

  <!--#if "zoot()"-->

not

  <!--#if "zoot"-->

If zoot is a document template, then:

  <!--#if zoot-->

is equivalent to:

  <!--#if "zoot(None,_)"-->
