I think this is a great idea. I've just started working with Midgard, and I
know that I've messed up a couple of times with having to remember (or even
know) when to use some of the tags.

I think <?[..]?>, and <?(..)?> might cause some problems for some people.
The two different brackets look a little too close in some cases.

How about <?:...:?> for the second set of tags instead of <?(...)?> ? It's a
nice little sequence, at least on a US keyboard, seems to stand out ok. Just
a thought.
