Well, the .ini can give sort of a "default" value for certain user-defined 
variables for the templates (sort of "place holders") and then the user 
might develop her/his own modules/scripts/functions to generate data for 
those place holders during the page "execution" (when people visit the 
site). Sort of what I'm doing to get banners for the accplusli.com site.

$ary['IMAGES']=random_image("banners.txt");

slashHead($foo,$bar,$ary);

...
etc...
