I am thinking about allowing for custom 'commands'/'tags' like the custom filters. If I add custom tags the you can add a new tag (for example a localization tag, {:l}string to localize{/:l} or update an existing tag (i.e. update :reduce to emit @index like you suggested).

opinions?

Understood (about adding to dictionary).

My feeling on that is that a nice template language should be able to work with data that you don't control. There are some useful JSON "standard" data structures popping up. I like the idea of being able to interoperate with other applications without doing a lot of data massaging on the template language's behalf.

Iterating over members in an object and elements in a array have analogs in most languages.

Sounds reasonable. I am wondering what other people think about this.
