Nothing wrong with them. I only suggested it belongs in H::T. If the argument is that H::T shouldn't suffer the performance penalty of recognizing whitespace associated with legible use of its tags, then why would I want an even greater performance hit processing the whole document a second time? Just because an attribute like "NOLF" would cause additional processing to omit the emission of linefeeds while it is in effect, that doesn't mean you have to use it. You make it sound like you're going to suffer a performance penalty by this feature being present. And then proceed to suggest I suffer an even greater one. :) Honestly I do agree with the zealous guarding against too many things getting into H::T that don't belong there. But, this issue of whitepsace associated with the legible use of H::T tags seems like a legitimate one. If it doesn't belong in H::T then I think it leads to the absurd conclusion that legibility is not within the scope of H::T. Also, the suggestion that legibility should be accomodated by post-processing diminishes (IMO) arguments about keeping H::T lean and mean. On the one hand, don't sacrifce a single cycle. On the other hand, parse the entire document a second time just to have legible templates (without the artifacts). That doesn't seem reasonable to me. If I'm in the minority, or it's not up for a vote, then ok. It's not a terribly important issue. But I still think something is missing.
