Hi folks, I've been working on the overhaul of master.html and
welcome.html from quickstart, and would like some feedback.

I noticed that previously, lines have been broken to meet PEP standards.
I propose that we do *not* break lines at 80 chars in Genshi templates
because:

- the file is IMHO first and foremost an XML doc and not python code
- in an XML doc, lines should preserve XML structure over PEP
- it's enormously more convenient to the designers and front end coders
to have xml structure visible at a glance even if lines are long whereas
broken up lines are kindof a pain unless they are reaaaallly long

IE this:

<div>
  <ul>
    <li>
      <a href="asdjadjalsdj;a" class="list of things that go past 80">
        stuff
      </a>
    </li>
  </ul>
</div>

is preferable to this:

<div>
 <ul>
   <li><a href="asak akjasd  asdkljl" class=
        "asds asdklj asd">stuff</a>
   </li>
etc etc

Thoughts? Correct me if I'm wrong please!

Iain
