Which begs the next question (or two)

1) Can the if-templates take arguments?  I essentially just want a 
standard cfgmaker output, with simple target renames, but with an argument 
specified on the cfgmaker command line (i.e. I don't want the if-template 
to have to run code to figure out which interface we're trying to graph 
here).

and, more importantly:

2) Where are these under-development, experimental things, documented, at 
all?  Are there any examples?  I had a quick look over mrtg.org but didn't 
see anything incredibly standing-out.
