[support] Templating in Drupal 5.1 - the cleanest way to do it?

[Cyberswat]

Thanks for the response.  I understand the approach you outline and have
been using it exclusively so far.  I'm starting to work with structures that
are more complex than my original example and would ultimately like to task
a designer to create/modify the tpl files without editing the module at
all.  How do I go about invoking the theme engine to accomplish this in a
similar to my original example?
