Hi, Pierce, et al,

I strongly prefer the simplicity built into the current named-WO- tag reference to attributes in the .wod file. At times I would prefer slightly more convenience at product creation time when I'm hand editing the files, but that always weighs against the limited amount of trouble that the current scheme can allow neophytes to cause as I'm professionally called in to clean up their messes.

  Point zero:

Any templating scheme can be in addition to the current scheme and may be more appropriate useful then the current schemes in additional contexts like XML and Javascript generation. It's mostly a matter of having a different template parser on the front end. Tweaking the templating scheme might then make it easier to hook into an open-source WYSIWYG editor like Nvu or whatever Eclipse has.

  In regards to your point:

A tool that understands WO tags might make it _harder_ for a neophyte to cause a mess.
