Blocks in the RTE use a special type, RichTextBlockItem, that can't automatically be converted to BlockListItem. During render, Umbraco is hardcoded (!) to look in a specific location, and will not fallback (!) to other locations. Instead of copy and pasting code, we use a simple trick to pass rendering off to the real template.
