{Title=>"test",Content="A test post",Date=>time},
{Title=>"My first post",Content="Nothing to say here",Date=>time-3600}

{% endimportloop %}DESCRIPTION
Iterates over a an ARRAY OF HASHES and imports those hashes into the top-level namespace.
If the loop is empty and an {% empty %} tag is given, it will run the templatecode from {% empty %} to {% endimportloop %}.
This tag works almost like HTML::Template's TMPL_LOOP tag.
reversed
If reversed is put after the source the list/array is reversed before the iteration
merge
If merge is given, the namespace is not replaced (default), but merged with the content of the hash.
contextvars
Similar to HTML::Template's loop_context_vars option, adds some variables into the namespace about the loop
__first__
True if this is the first iteration
__inner__
True if this is neither the first nor the last iteration.
__last__
True if this is the last iteration.
If there is only one iteration, __first__ and __last__ are both true, but not __inner__
__counter__
The current iteration, 1 indexed.
__odd__
True on the first line and every other line (first, third, fifth and so on)
BUGS AND DIFFERENCES TO DJANGO
Also sets importloop.key if iterating over a hash.
