To be more specific, imp/templates/compose/compose.html appears to employ
homemade syntax, such as looping, if, and arrays in this "html" file.  But I
can't find syntax definition of these structures anywhere, especially how to
address an array element without looping in this "html".  Anyone has any
suggestion of decipher it?
