Sorry, I don't have a direct answer to your question. I haven't written
front-end code for a loong time and haven't needed such tools recently
enough to know.

I just meant to say that only a templating engine (or something that would
parse the full output) can be context-aware. Although in many cases, where
a template engine provides helpers such as those that generate lists or
forms, those helpers still have sufficient context.

Cheers,
Andrey.
