For the simple situation you describe above, you might just consider
using an include directive to grab a portion of a page and have in
included on other pages. (In that case, you would probably just want to
type out the full message ("In case of problem....") and include it,
instead of creating its components and piecing it together. You could
place the include directive on a groupheader if you wanted it appear on
all pages in a group.
To do what you describe with variables, I would take a look at Dominique
Faure's excellent PageVariableExtensions cookbook recipe.
