Page content hook suggestions

[bogyvet]

This is code that I work with to be able to implement PAGE SHORTCODES. When I start adding SHORTCODES I realize that code:

Code:

add_filter('content', 'FUNCTION_TO_CALL');

Work only with page $content variable. So it wasn't possible to add shortcodes in template.

Modifications index.php:

Code:

ob_start();
# include the template and template file set within theme.php and each page
if ( (!file_exists(GSTHEMESPATH .$TEMPLATE."/".$template_file)) || ($template_file == '') ) { $template_file = "template.php"; }

include(GSTHEMESPATH .$TEMPLATE."/".$template_file);
$data = ob_get_contents();
ob_clean();
exec_filter('page-content', $data);

And I call function :

Code:

add_filter('page-content', 'FUNCTION_TO_CALL');

I think this is cleanest solution, and could be implemented in core. In this way implementing caching system would be easy. And base functionality is not changed.
