Hello,

So far I really love Haml, but I have an issue with it where it comes
to preformatted text.I have a fairly large amount of preformatted text
(generated on the fly by a Rails helper) that I'm trying to include
into my page. Using the :preserve filter, it /looks/ fine, but in the
source it's all on one line, word-wrapped to about thirty, and
completely indecipherable.

I discussed this briefly with Nex3 on IRC, but he had to run. While
writing this message, though, I did have an idea: would it be possible
to add another tag prefix, using either a _ (underscore) or a |
(pipe), to tell Haml that the tag's indentation (or at least its
content) should be reset? Nex3 had mentioned that Haml couldn't
determine when it was safe to perserve the literal newlines because it
automatically indents text, but if you used | to reset indentation, it
seems like it would be safer for Haml to do. If that was possible, I
think "%pre|<" would work perfectly for my purposes.

Otherwise, some advice would be very much appreciated! Thanks in
advance,
~Jonathan Castello
