Description

I have a custom tr tag that returns internationalized strings from a dictionary, and I'd like to apply a Selmer filter to its output. Is that possible?

As a simple example: say {% tr core/greeting %} parses to Hello or Hola depending on a user's current language preference, and I'd like to then apply |upper to the output of that tag.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how Selmer's tags and filters are implemented, and see if it's possible to pipe tag output through filters. Look at existing tag implementations and filter chaining.
