Comment:
As far as I know, the consensus among the core team is that:
- the Django template language is good enough for generating HTML, which
isn't sensitive to whitespace;
- the long term plan is to replace it with a better engine (most likely
Jinja), not to keep working on it;
- if you have more specialized needs (want to generate RTF?) just use
another template engine, there are several to choose from.
Hence, closing wontfix. Thanks everyone who tried contributing to this
ticket, and sorry it didn't happen.
