Does it expand around multiple lines very well? For example:
[timed-build period="1 hour"]
<FORM ACTION="[area search]" METHOD="POST">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="sf" VALUE="vendor">
<SELECT NAME="se" WIDTH="20">
[query sql="SELECT DISTINCT vendor FROM products ORDER BY vendor"
list=1]
<option value="[sql-param vendor]" selected>[sql-filter
20.][sql-param vendor][/sql-filter]</option>
[/query] <input type=submit value="Go!">
</SELECT>
</FORM>
[/timed-build]
The above code will extract a list of unique vendor names from the products
table. Surrounding it as I have should mean that it only executes this code
once an hour and extracts it from timed\whatever the rest of the time.
Correct?

It does work well with even very large chunks of code, but be careful of code which changes the nature of the output based on user interaction; in such situations you will not get the expected results when using timed build. In your above example, if you wanted the selector to retain the user's last choice as the selected option, [timed-build] would not be a good idea.
