This business of non-Turing templates have been
known in HTML and before that, in GUI in general,
by the name of Data Binding.

Internet Explorer 4.0-5.0 (1997-98) introduced dynamic two-way 
hierarchical binding was first introduced, a very powerful feature, 
especially coupled with hierarchical SQL query. HTML could be bound 
to XML data islands, which could be fetched from the server without 
reloading the page (technology that much later became known as AJAX).
