No please don't do this! This is exactly what I have written in the  
new rendering module. I'd like that both Malaka and you spend some  
time understanding the new rendering module. Please ask as many  
questions as you want here since it's not currently well documented  
but please don't reinvent the wheel. Also I'd like to know if the new  
rendering API is missing anything you'd need for your use cass.

Thanks
