After further thought, I also have to agree that the switch approach is not a
good idea in this case, and would be happy with the suggested switch on
Special:ExpandTemplates.
However, I do have to disagree with a couple things Conrad said: First, this
most certainly *would* achieve something, since many of our most complicated -
and most ported - templates rely on Tidy to display correctly, it requires
reusers to either install Tidy, or to find a version of the template designed
to work without it (or, more often, to develop such a version themselves). And
second, Tidy only influences output, it doesn't have any effect on how the
parser works (and fixing only the parser's output should not (in theory) break
any template which relies on bugs in how the parser handles input). Therefore,
while disabling Tidy would, in some cases, break output, it would not change
how templates actually work.
