Two comments: * The exclamation point seems good enough for attributes. I copied that for Hamlet as well.
* If you're standardizing on UTF-8, why not support bytestrings? I'm aware that a user could shoot him/herself in the foot by passing in non-UTF8 data, but I would imagine the performance gains would outweigh this. My recent benchmarks on the BigTable benchmark[1] imply a huge performance gap between ByteStrings and other contenders. As we've discussed before, I think combining BlazeHtml and Hamlet would be very nice, though I'm dubious that a BlazeHtml backend for Hamlet would be faster than a raw backend. Looking forward to hearing more progress, good luck!
