Look, of course there are ways around it, with multiple levels of filtering,
pre- and post- processing.  This is Perl, after all, TIMTOWTDI.

I do not argue that H:T should be the be-all and end-all of frameworks and that
every single minor feature should be slopped in, but hat doesn't change the fact
that if a _lot_ of people come across the same issue with a framework and there
is a clear scenario that spans most people's use cases, then it makes sense to
do it in H:T.

H:T, in my view, is most useful to separate display from code.  Adding more
layers and wrappers of code to affect display is counter-productive.

Cheers,
Chris
