O crap! that sounds about right. I was thinking of media_url in terms
of only static files, didnt think of {{ templatename }} variable.

As for the templating part in an app like shopify , i am not familar
with rails, but i assume it allows you to create custom template tags
like django. I doubt this is the method they are using? Are they
probably just using a custom template system from scratch?
