That's why I was thinking about trying to use TT in some fashion. That way, you have the same constructs from TT, but you do still have a separate template file for each output format.

My criteria for good software:

Does it work?
Can someone else come in, make a change, and be reasonably certain no bugs were introduced?

If it comes down to it and you have a choice, leave it so the user can choose any template backend they like.
