Sorry for being unclear about the real problem..
To recap, it's quite difficult to manage multiple variables in the same
template (bad idea).

As a workaround, I suggested the idea of implementing some kind of
$stash->unset() method in order to avoid precedences problems, for instance,
when dealing with multiples variables inside the same template. 
(again, still not a good idea :)

How about using PROCESS to update variables which really need processing
and leaving INCLUDE for the less important stuff ? 

sub handler {
	my $r = shift;
	my $output;
	my $stash = $CONTEXT->stash();			# get the stash,
	$stash->set('updateme', \$var);			# some content, 
	$output .= $CONTEXT->include('header');	# does not need updating,
	$output .= $CONTEXT->process('content');# but this does,
	$output .= $CONTEXT->include('footer');	# and this doesnt.
	$r->print ($output);
}
