Hi!

So, if my vote counts, I'd say that I am somewhat -0 on the concept in
general and I would see it as a non-core component (e.g. optional plug-in)
so people are able to try it out and if it shows not to be dangerous it can
be integrated into the core later. As for default bihavior I vote for
allowing macros & directives inside macros (BTW what are going to do about
recursion?). And also vote for only allowing macro definitions in a central
library and not in the templates themselves. dixi.
