It now almost can.

This got me thinking and I have added a form template engine
"text" which works like this:

The template in the database is a .conf/INI file. That file
contains a group [form] under which there's an option
"template" which in turn contains the *actual* template. The
file also contains the options "editor" and "post processor"
which hold command lines for calling each (an argument %s
will be replaced by the template file name having been
created from the "template" option).

That way people can achieve nearly any formatting they wish
of any combination of data GNUmed allows being exported by
placeholders. Beyond that it is pretty much raw SQL which
would need to be run.
