That would be interesting. There's still lots of runtime processing
though. Maybe a build-time tool can also optimize it though, but if it
happens to be executed at runtime it'll just work. Here's a JSX-like
concept, let's call it 'xjs' for sake of argument:
```
let style = {background: 'turquoise'}
let content = xjs`<p>hello</p>`
let el = xjs`
<div style=${styleObject}>
${content}
</div>
`
```
It could be compiled statically as well as have a runtime template-tag
implementation.
