Here's some thinking about the semantics. First, it seems clear that we have to permit multiple distinct sibling mv-list-item elements naming different properties ie different collections. Which is something we...

But, the original mv-list-item is still present, now as a grandchild of the mv-list. So why not have mavo replicate the grandchild?

I would say any *uninterrupted* descendant---if there's an intervening mv-list then of course that should take precedence. Put another way mv-list-item should tie to the closest mv-list ancestor.

So I see the appeal of being able to define your own functions. But I'm uncertain about the right syntax direction. There's a slippery slope here. Obviously once I start...

I want to be sure I understand what you are proposing. This is a way to *define functions* in mavo? So your example defines a function named functionName that takes...

I recommend reading [this paper](https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/publication/a-user-centred-approach-to-functions-in-excel/) for insight. They are tackling a parallel problem, of letting users define new functions in spreadsheets. Here's one question from thinking about what they did....

I'll also bring in the somewhat related issue of templates. Just like we write functions to avoid repeating ourselves, sometimes we want to display the same kind of information the...

But note that with the div just above, the extra content is *not* rendered. Only in the table. Try editing the data at the top.
