We do that as well, but differently.
The way we do it, If you define a variable to a template, it is available to
both the template and the layout.

The fix I presented earlier uses the template variable.

So thanks again!

I was contemplating this. I'm not sure we should issue warnings on what we
*think* you aren't suppose to be doing. True, we do set warnings on by
default (as well as strict), because we think it's important and some of
these warnings are just that - things you probably didn't want to do.
However, I'm still on the fence on this.
