That was all I could think of, J.O.
I'm not sure the tradeoff is anywhere near worth it, though.
Better more work for PHP, I'd think, that be driven crazy as
a code maintainer trying to read the mixed PHP-MTML soup.
I suspect that on most sites the speed improvement, if any,
would be marginal. I can't speak from much experience, but
in the project I'm working on--a text filter--the text
processing done by PHP scanning text twenty-plus times and
substituting this for that would probably dwarf the output
of a little HTML as PHP strings.
