You cannot nest dtml tags inside one another like that. If you want to
pass the rendered content of a DTML document to the method use:

<dtml-var expr="ExtMethod(DTMLDocument(_.None,_))">

The weird arguments to the Document are used to pass the namespace to
the document. If you want to just pass the whole document object, you
can just use:

<dtml-var expr="ExtMethod(DTMLDocument)">
