There is a general issue with this: we have a hard time to rely on third-party packages, to avoid endorsing one over others. This topic has been discussed many times over the years, and rarely went anywhere. However, we use a simple template engine in web-bugs[1] which was contributed by Peter Kokot some years ago; I never had a closer look at it, but maybe it could be used for web-php, too.
