I use both H::T & TT and have completely bypassed load_tmpl() by writing 
my own process() method which does all kinds of things I need. IMHO, 
since C::App is a framework it shouldn't even have built-in support for 
any template system. But, as you and others have mentioned, it _should_ 
provide an easy way to use whatever template system you prefer.

If generalized template support is added, I think it should be in a new 
method solely because load_tmpl() has such historical significance. 
Personally I really like process(), but then I'm biased. :-)
