I was wondering if folks have tried using Petal 0.84 to generate Petal 
templates from other Petal templates.

I'm using a technique (which might have been a syntactical violation) 
under 0.83 which doesn't work under 0.84.

<input 	type='hidden'
	TAL:attributes="name configuration/get_identity_field_name;"
	petal:attributes="value entry/${configuration/get_identity_field_name};"
/>

Under 0.83 output:
<input petal:attributes="value entry/id;" type="hidden" name="id" />

Under 0.84 this doesn't work and complains ...
'Cannot find value for name="configuration/get_identity_field_name"?>: 
get_identity_field_name"?> cannot be retrieved

Maybe I'm missing something (and its also possible that I'm leaving out 
important information to help me debug), but the behavior of resolving 
variables 'in place' for the 'attributes' attribute is fairly powerful 
(and valuable for making Petal templates from Petal templates). Was this 
behavior removed on purpose, or is this a side effect of the

Thank you for your time,
