Daniel, This is a really interesting idea! However, I'm unsure whether it's wise to bring this feature in without having the community test and validate it first. Would it be possible to release this as an extension first so we can gauge its stability and desirability in "the real world"?
As far as the implementation goes, one thing I don't like is the complexity involved to output unescaped HTML. I'd strongly prefer to do something like <?=raw($someVariable) ?> than having to instantiate a special class every time I need to output some raw HTML. Also, I know some templating systems (like Twig) allow you to specify different escaping strategies: http://twig.sensiolabs.org/doc/filters/escape.html Would this proposed feature have any similar functionality?
