Going from memory, this last one is not the same as the other two. My
need is to have a different structure for the page, whereas the other
two are about filtering the content of the page.

For the different structures the dispatcher should be adaptable, if only
the damn thing would stop moving every time I get time to look at it ;-)
For the filtered content, see my proposal on the user lists for the
content filtering (your first reference above). This solution can easily
be added to the content-main contract. It is not really a feature for
the dispatcher itself, but can be implemented in the dispatcher.
In short, I think it would make a great feature. I don't have the time
to implement it though. Hopefully we can coax the user in the above
thread to implement it and provide a patch. It's then a simple case of
extracting it into a contract.
