This sounds handy.
At least it's possible to use inside XML documents and are easy to use as <?=...
The topic discussion is about ASP tags. IMHO, they are useless and
just contribute to programmers write non-standards code. They should
be dropped.
On the other hand, I usually don't like short tags because of XML
compliant code. I have them disabled in all environments I develop.
But I still believe that a quick way to write content, without messing
XML documents is a great feature. So, if you plan to support something
like this, I think it's a nice addiction to PHP, as long as it do not
stay in the short tags scope.
Personally I use a "e" function to do the task. So... I write this:
<?php e("Something"); ?> that is shorter thans echo. But <?echo is
quickier and simpler than my approach. =)

Hello Guilherme,
"<?=" is also not confirm toxml spec. What we could do is "<?echo".
