would it be a potential possibility instead to `overwrite and
specialize' some macro? If, for example, there would be some
logic consisting of OUTPUT_HEADER OUTPUT_CONTENT OUTPUT_FOOTER
could someone overwrite one of them to add some lines?
I guess this probably could be more flexible (but no idea if this
makes any sense in this context).
