Yes, that's right. We essentially want to be able to embed references to other database objects inside textfields on objects such as pages, or blog posts, or etc. The most obvious example would be images, but imagine embedding other objects as well, such as videos, maps, or whatever. Given that different templates may want to render different embedded content types differently from other templates, there should be an integration into the template system that allows a template to define how a given content type should be rendered.
