for loop in pages?

[fedelibre]

I wonder if cactus allows to use a (django template) for loop inside a regular page. I don't think that Cactus has a model like in Django. Am I wrong? All I need actually is the access to paths and files in /static/images.

Purpose: reduce typing redundant html code for an image gallery. I'd like to say something like (pseudocode):

{% for file in /static/images/folder %}
    <li>
      <a href="{{full_path}}" title="{{file}}"><img src="{{full_path}}" alt="{{file}}" /></a>
    </li>
{% endfor %}

The site should be in context (if not, write a plugin to inject the site in your context), and then call site.static() to get a list of static files. If you need more complex filtering, this probably should happen in a plugin.

@krallin can you provide an example?
