Yes, it finally replaces #239. I have first supposed both will be merged,
but finally rewritten to improve clean code with separation of concerns.
Regarding performance, "raw" mode may have few overhead. Variable support
should act exactly as if text area was used. I will try to make some check with
microbenchmarking.
