I was sugesting on irc to add a "method" enum with the default="template".
Jonathans case could be integrated as method="file-list" and using location for
the file. Other options might me callback (it would ask the application to
update the filename via callback).

It seems to be a common case to have filenames with some sort of datestamp.
That could be covered by adding a "files-by-name" method. It would require the
element to scan the dir given in location and sort the names. I am just a bit
afraid that then people want different sort orders and so on (just check the
options from sort command).
