Strong +1
This is a great idea.
This would allow more flexibility in some corner cases and
prevent unnecessary duplication, not to mention sharing.
Another example: I believe crate compiles templates using the DOM API,
which is often fine, but sometimes you'd want it to do this using raw
strings (when working with a large number of Elements), for performance
reason. This would help to solve such issues.
