Not the way I program. Most of my pages contain little, if any, HTML --
even in print statements. They tend to load stuff (including, but not
limited to HTML) from database, process them with various functions, and
then shove them into templates.

e.g.
http://svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/demiblog/trunk/blog/includes/Article.class?view=markup

I can't see any place in that file where it would be advantageous to
"break out of PHP mode".

Besides which... HTML? Aesthetics?! That's what CSS is for!
