I care. It's the thin end of the wedge. Next thing you know people are
going to come up with <a %end="]" href="blah"]<html>...[/a %end=">">. And
Forth does that kind of thing SO much better.

It'll all end in tears!

PS: I implemented a markup language \[i]in Forth\[n] around 1982, that
defined Forth words for markup... and anything inside \x...x was passed
to the Forth outer intepreter.
