Yes I am. I decided against smarty because it does give any real
advantages in my experience. When using smarty you soon start to use
PHP-like constructs like loops and if-then-else cases, but with a
different syntax. I think PHP is a very good templating language itself
- no need for another abstraction layer. BTW. developers of some other
popular software seem to think alike, eg. Wordpress or Joomla.

I think inc/html.php could use some improvements, there are some things
that are much too monolithic, but I'm not sure we are thinking in the
same direction here... What changes do you have in mind exactly?
