Repeatable sections in email templates

Repeatable sections in email templates

It would be great to be able to have repeatable regions in the email templates.  This would let us have a single email template with one styled bio that is repeatable, so an email made with this template could have three identical styled bios without us having to have a separate template for three-bio emails.  We could add a class on div tags (or even table rows or columns) that would replicate that editable section exactly, allowing us far more flexibility in the emails that could be made from a single template.

Not only should they be repeatable, but we should also be able to delete them entirely.

Also would be great to have some kind of drag and drop functionality.

Repeatable sections would make the creation of newsletter type emails much easier, as you never know how many sections you will need.

To complement the idea, it would be great to transpose in email some of the mechanisms now available in Guided LP, such as elements and variables.

Repeatable sections could be switched on and off and their number would be set using variables.

Pushing the idea event further, we could create repeatable alternate sections, in order to be able to vary the repetition.
