I think it's just a matter of different approaches.

The way I've been doing it, as I described earlier, the content was in a
template.  It relied on includes to pull the HTML in, and I had to do
interleaved includes to get the title (among other things) in.  Which is
no big deal, other than it necessitates putting rather more structure in
each content-template than I'd really like to have.

If, on t'other hand, you start with a master template and stuff the
content in via TMPL_VARs, you can stuff the title just as well as the main
content... but then you lose the ability to have TMPL_VARs within the
content you're stuffing.  Unless, as I'll probably end up doing, you're
processing the content as a nested template, a la:
$page->param("content", $subpage->output)).

There are advantages and drawbacks to either approach.
