For better readability, I suggest merging the paragraph ending with "With the indirection of such a binding, a Template can reference itself." and the paragraph starting with "The writer of recursive {@link Template}s must ensure that this recursion terminates" into a single paragraph.

Hmm. One can have recursive templates also without the Binding. That is why I though I might want to separate them.

Basically, you an have a Template factory, that pumps out the same copy over and over. That way, the indirection goes over that factory, rather than over the binding. But recursion none the less, just recursion through the Template factory, rather the binding.

But I also don't necessarily want to explain all of that...

What do you think? Is it ok to leave separately, or do you have any other suggestions?
