Let me see if I've got this straight: you want to force the template
writer to include "ESCAPE=something" in every TMPL_VAR, where
"something" can be "HTML", "URL", or a value indicating "no escapes"
(say, "TEXT"); failure to do so would cause a catchable error in your
script when you try to evaluate the template.  Right?

Probably.  May I suggest a form for your subclass to take?  Let
"default_escape" contain two additional values: "TEXT" (which means
the same as "0" above, and can also be used in 'ESCAPE=' to override
the default with no escaping), and "NONE" (which throws an exception
any time a TMPL_VAR lacks 'ESCAPE=').  This will let you easily switch
to an appropriate default_escape value once transition to the new code
is complete.
