+(defn resolve-arg
+  "Resolves an arg as passed to an add-tag! handler using the provided
+  context-map.
+
+  A custom tag handler will receive a seq of args as its first argument.
+  With this function, you can selectively resolve one or more of those args
+  so that if they contain literals, the literal value is returned, and if they
+  contain templates of any sort, which can itself have variables, filters or
+  tags in it, they will be returned resolved, applied and rendered.
+
+  Example:
+    (resolve-arg {{header-name|upper}} {:header-name \"My Page\"})
+    => \"MY PAGE\""
