I don't see a benefit of making a velocity-like syntax, except for those
that would want to migrate to PHP/Smarty that already are familiar with
velocity.
If Smarty ever did change its syntax, it would probably be toward
something XML compatible. The compiler is getting organized, it's closer
to a point where changing the syntax is a more feasible task.
