We need to support the use of submessages in template definitions in order to substantially increase the power and flexibility of our templating system and adapter model.

As we discussed previously, we'd like to enable systematic support to allow submessages to be instantiated inline in the YAML, or via reference. Via reference allows the same submessage to be reused in multiple places, which is useful for things like monitored resources.

@geeknoid I think the support for cross referencing can be done as a separate task. I am move the feature to reference sub messages into its own issue. Basically this issue will just be about allowing sub-messages inside templates.
