WOComponents are dead, long live smart tags!

 Starting hopefully a new, productive thread of discussion.

Personally, I find the whole way WO does dynamic tags to be very 1995...

These days, I think WO should have tags more along the lines of what's become more of a standard: legal XHTML tags like the following:

 <span  woid:replace="food">Sample Data</span>

(accompanying WOD)

  food: WOString
  {
    value=session.food; /// hmmm... I must be hungry.
  }

The big problem for the WYSIWYG editors has always been that they have to read two places to figure out what a tag resolves to in HTML terms. Why not have:

<form woid:attributes="hamburger">
  ...stuff
</form>

hamburger : WOForm
{

}

Perhaps rather then whine about WOB dying, we should turn dreamweaver/ Golive/That firefox thing into WOB...

What do you all think? Really, it's just a matter of replacing the template parser, and thanks to jadclipse, that stuff all has the source available...
