I know there has been a lot of refactoring going on in the rendering engine in Rails 3.0. I just hope we get a clear definition and usage of "view" (instances of ActionView::Base) and "template" (instances of ActionView::Template). What is considered as "view" parameter in some places (template code) is stored as @template in the controller. And making it possible to access the view during template compilation would be nice...
