[Zope] Tal:condition problem

[KevinL]

How about:

<div tal:define="macroName request/form/id">
  <metal:block use-macro="container/zptmac_memtask/macros/?macroName">
    List
  </metal:block>
</div>

Combined with renaming your "id" field in your forms (or your macro
names, either will do) so they match?  That munges the whole list of
tal:conditions down to something more manageable...
