But then your considerations should apply also to the *existing*

I don't think you'll get any argument about this issue from folks who
don't use HTML::Template for their template engine. It's legacy code
that constantly comes into discussions about how to integrate other
template engines with C::A.

I use both H::T & TT and have completely bypassed load_tmpl() by writing my own process() method which does all kinds of things I need. IMHO, since C::App is a framework it shouldn't even have built-in support for any template system. But, as you and others have mentioned, it _should_ provide an easy way to use whatever template system you prefer.


If generalized template support is added, I think it should be in a new method solely because load_tmpl() has such historical significance. Personally I really like process(), but then I'm biased. :-)
