I understand completely what you're getting at already, but PHP is designed to do what you're asking to do. I know there are valid reaons for stripped down implementations, but can't think of too many. And actually, I would consider RTF or PDF to be languages unto themselves. There's a full syntax to use to get specific results, and if you're throwing conditionals in there, or variables, it's hard to see how it's not a language. Maybe not full-featured, but a language nonetheless.
