It is something I just made up, but that would work, if/when the
dtml-component tag is included in Zope. 

It just is a callable object, that gets fed a attribute named
component-contents with the dtml code in within the block in it. 

Come to think of it, I am not sure if the above would work. The contents
of the dtml-component tag are likely to have been rendered _before_
insertion, not after. Hmm.. If the code in the component block doesn't
get called until insert it, the following could be he contents of
batched_resultstable (approx, out of my head and all):

  <!-- something displaying the next and previous sizes her
       based on whether or not show_next_prev is true -->
  <dtml-in expr="_[resultset]" size=20>
    <dtml-if sequence-start><table><tr><dtml-var head></tr></dtml-if>
    
    <tr><dtml-var component-contents></tr>

    <dtml-if sequence-end></table></dtml-if>    
   
  </dtml-in>
