month 2 times, day 2 times.
"object.pub_date|date:" was repeated 9 times.. there was a lot of
repetition going on ;)

Anyway, my question still stands.. is there a more elegant way to
extend a generic view to output more variables than it does by default
(see my first message for more details)? Beside this case it would be
handy for some other case too
