Consider using different template block names. #281

We're using machina on a client project and ran into a weird issue that took awhile to debug.

The issue was we're heavily customizing the CSS, by replacing Bootstrap with Tailwind for example. Which is easy enough to do.

However, we're also using template blocks with names like 'body' and 'content' in the rest of the site. This caused weird issues like the list of forums to be displayed twice.

With those names being so common I worried others might run into this fairly hard to debug situation.

Maybe consider switching the project to use something like 'machina_body' and 'machina_content'?
