   56 #   * &pre_header_initialize - give subclasses a chance to do initialization
   57 #     necessary for generating the HTTP header.
   58 #   * &header - this class provides a standard HTTP header with Content-Type
   59 #     text/html. Subclasses are welcome to overload this for things like
   60 #     an image-creation content generator or a PDF generator.
   61 #   * &initialize - let subclasses do post-header initialization.
   62 #   * any "template escapes" defined in the system template and supported by
   63 #     the subclass. Generic implementations of &title and &body are provided.
