"getMacro" cannot return a string -- it must return the actual macro
object. One way to accomplish this is to use the "restrictedTraverse"
method on your path string, like so:
return context.restrictedTraverse('path/to/library.zpt/macros/some')
Slightly more efficient, if your path is static, would be the following:
return context.path.to['library.zpt'].macros.some
On the other hand, you *could* return a path string, if you change your
use-macro to:
<p metal:use-macro="python:path(here.getMacro())">
