-Jinja2 Semantics
-----------------
-
-Jinja2 behaves like regular Python code in the runtime with some additional
-restrictions that allow the template engine to optimize some common idoms.
-The context is semi immutable.  Only Jinja2 itself may modify it, if other
-code (such as :func:`contextfunction`\s) modify it the changes won't show up
-as expected.
-
-Another change to regular Python is that Jinja2 sees attributes as immutable.
-It assumes that every time it accesses `foo.bar`, bar will look the same as
-long as `foo` was not overriden.  In some situations Jinja will take advantage
-of that to internally substitute continuous lookups to the same attributes
-with a copy of the attribute.
-
-For example in the following template the `post.user` attribute is looked up
-once:
-
-.. sourcecode:: html+jinja
-
-    {% if post.user %}
-        <h3>{{ post.user.username }}</h3>
-        <p>Location: {{ post.user.location }}</p>
-    {% endif %}
-
-That said, the objects passed to the template may not generate different
-values every time a property is accessed.
