From the standpoint of the maintainer it definitely looks more
complex.

These days I prefer less code in more modules.  HTML::Template has
reached a point where I'm extremely reluctant to add code to do work
that could be done just as well in a separate module.  Since this job
can be handled outside of HTML::Template, I think it should be.
