The only  one that I can remember was 
the $placeholder(arg=$placeholder(arg2=1234))
nesting.  What were the others?

I have no qualms about using the parser 
for that stuff (... I wish I had the time). However, I still think 
it's not worth the effort for the directives and I actually
prefer /# to ; for a closure.  It's more visible. I might reconsider 
at a future date when I have more time.

In the meantime I've switched the explicit closure to /# 

Ian, I find it ironic that you who 'uses Emacs for everything'
is so aware of the needs for explicit closures in WYSIWYG
editors ;)
