And if someone wants to use his own tag? Would he have to reimplement
dontIndent or String.noIndentation by himself?
What I meant above with tag concatenation would be something like this:
var a = String.noIndentation myTag
`This is a template string.
Even though each line is indented to keep the
code neat and tidy, the white space used to indent
is not in the resulting string`;
So first the template string would be parsed by String.noIndentation and
subsequently by myTag.
