This sounds like a good idea to me.

Btw, maybe there should be something similar to a GroupHeader/Footer 
for the entire site?
(Site.SiteHeader and Site.SiteFooter - I 'Main' is so generic IMO)

Then it'd be enough to write for instance

	[[robots:nofollow,index]]

one of them. Another idea would be to have a page Site.SiteHead that is 
used especially for directives that affect what goes into <HEAD>..</HEAD>

Just some loose thoughts.

That markup looks a bit 'ugly' IMHO, and I think it's better with a more 
consistent markup where most of the directives use double brackets.
