having woken up now and put a little thought into this, I can handle my
immediate requirements elegantly enough within the existing framework.=20
Specifying model attributes to override velocity subtemplates will do the
trick - it just needs some reworking of the top-level templates themselve=
s
mostly.

I don't know whether the proposal may still be of use if someone had a
real need to override the entire view though (say to change from an html
based view to a PDF/Excel one).  I could see that type of thing as still
being a possible requirement that would require mutators on ModelAndView.
