I guess I can take this as a suggestion that it would be worth it to implement this, right? :-)

You mean if the data look like this: 

[
  { 'lname' => 'Krynicky', 'fname' => 'Jenda',
    'PageId' => 1,
    'Details' => {
      Header => 'blah blah',
      Footer => 'bla bla bla',
    }
  },
  ...
];

? You could use a template like this for example: 
<root>
  <page cmd:foreach set:id="$_->{PageId}" opt:required>
   <field cmd:foreachkey="! /^(PageId|Details)$/">
     <cmd:insert set:_tag="$key" set:_content="$value"/>
   </field>
   <details cmd:forkey="Details">
     <cmd:insert cmd:foreachkey set:_tag="$key" set:_content="$value"/
+>
   </details>
  </page>
</root>

That is you make sure the foreachkey in the <field> tag skips both the PageId and Details keys, include the <details> tag to present the values of the 'Details' key and finally foreachkey directly in the <cmd:insert> tag to print the data from the inner hash.

Is this what you meant? I assume writing the documentation for this will be quite hard. Just like the docs for XML::Rules were. And I don't think I did a perfect job there.
