Feature request: allow blocks to appear more than once

[Mihai Damian]

Wouldn't it be nice if a template accepted multiple appearances of a block?

I'm thinking of declaring a {% block <name> %} in a template and then extending another template where {% block <name> %} appears more than once.

Sometimes you need identical content displayed in multiple regions of a web page. As the system works now I would have to define two blocks for this and every time I make a change to one of them, remember to change the other. A bit redundant.

Thanks
