As long as those of us who use text editors don't suffer because of
it; i.e., the WYSIWYG features must be optional and not mandatory.
One of the things I *don't* like about Zope Presentation Templates
is that they substitite a nice, easy-to-type:
        <dtml-var foo>
with a huge monster tag that repeats the content twice, merely for
the convenience of visual tools which I never use anyway.  (Kind of
like the XML tradeoff we've discussed on and off: you can make your
files XML-correct so you can use XML tools on them, but what XML tools
are there that you're going to use??)
