Finally got around to look at this a bit, it's a bit of a trip down the memory lane as I remember looking at the build template stuff in the macros file some 15+ years ago and wondering why it was never finished :slightly_smiling_face: 

I suppose we do want this in some form at least, but escaping all the %'s kind of nullifies the potential benefit of being able to re-expand macros at build-time (vs spec parse time). I kinda doubt those weird%%names are that common that we couldn't break it, as long as there's an easy way to around it (escapes, quoting, whatever)
