You go strange ways....

  The natural way would be:

    Make a page that calls both queries, like that:

      myPage:

	....
        <dtml-with "FeatureDetailQuery()[0]">
	  <dtml-var Name>
	</dtml-with>
        <dtml-with "OtherQuery()[0]">
	  <dtml-var Name>
	</dtml-with>
	....

  But, of course, you can also integrate the second query
  in your "FeatureDetail". It's only a bit convoluted....

     FeatureDetail:
       ....
       <dtml-var Name>
       <dtml-with "OtherQuery()[0]">
	 <dtml-var Name>
       </dtml-with>
       ....
