Now as for precompiled code, I am all for that. We have lots of bit of code
that are run on every page and I know that it is possible to rework all this
somehow to not have to do that.
I am still not clear on your problem with the rewriting. I don't see what
the number of files in the templates has to do with anything.
Can you elaborate more on that. Maybe some examples of what the request
would be and how you would rewrite it and why.
