That would make it possible to write a script that generates ruby code
like this:

module MyTemplate
  def MyTemplate::expand(data)
    user = data(:user)
    list = data(:list)
    # any other "global" variables needed by the template
    
    # ruby code generated by kwartz
  end
end

It's certainly ugly, but I can't think of anything else. Or is there a
way to set variables from the contents of a hash?
