We all know Greenstone's format statements and macrofiles are hard to
learn (although we like to think they are powerful and fairly easy to
use once you get a handle on them). Now is your chance to suggest
improvements to what is a fairly important part of building a good
collection. The more responses Kevin receives the better we'll know
where to focus our efforts!

Personally, I think Greenstone format statements really need a {ForEach}
construct for displaying multiple metadata values. Using "sibling" just
doesn't cut it when you're generating tables etc.
