and IMHO a BIIIIG plus --> XML+DTD does not only unravel unused or made-up fields but it offers the editing tools (= backend GUI) the possibility to _LIST the available fields!!_ This means - no digging in TSref anymore as the user can clearly see what fields in the 
current context are allowed! And even better - chances for a click'n'run backend just like the current Template Constants editor but on a defined language (XML)

just my 0,02 ¬
