[Zope-dev] calling dtml method with same name up the hierarchy.

I'd like to be able to nest footers and headers.

The thing I would expect is to have a standard_html_footer DTML method in
the root, then be able to have standard_html_footers in subfolders which add
their stuff, then call the root one.

like:

/standard_html_footer:
   (c) 2000 Warner Brothers

/merrie_melodies/standard_html_footer:
   That's all folks!
   <dtml-var standard_html_footer>


Of course this causes infinite recursion now. So is there a decent way to
explicitly call the "super" standard_html_footer, without renaming files or
copying data in multiple places?
