def objIndex(value, arg):
"Use objects as keys in dictionaries
{{ my_dict|objIndex:Value }}"
return value[arg]
for example, is probably

Ok, so I just tried installing the admin interface, and my code
appears to break that in all sorts of interesting ways. So, I guess
what I posted is pretty worthless right now. I'm still going to try
to get this working though, since I think it should be worthwhile.

So, we have the four basic things that a "dot" can imply in a
template: dictionary lookup, attribute lookup, method call, and
list-index. What I needed was dictionary lookup on the context's
value for the given field, rather the literal field. An example might
help:
