That's planned. And it will go further than existing templates where it's just fill in the blank.

An idea I had a couple jobs ago -- which I intend to develop now -- is the ability to encode logic into the templates so that the template can be used in all sorts of business situations.

It's probably a good idea to implement this with an existing language so that you don't end up making your own programming language. For example you could just make the whole document a JavaScript template string.
