Do you mind if I ask why not?  It's half-way implemented as it stands. 
Both of the 'short form' tags support the behavior, what was the
reasoning behind not supporting it in the 'long form' tag?

Other than Rasmus's claim that he '...can't think of anything uglier
and less sensical...".  If that was the reason for not fully supporting
the form, why was it partially implemented in the first place?

Bug #16663 Updated: Different syntax for embedding HTML in PHP

Don't think of it as including HTML in PHP.  Think of it as including
PHP in HTML.  That way you have your block-level delimiters as the
standard PHP start/end tags.

Whether this is a problem is completely dependant on your point of
view.

Well, I found another bug report #8685 which clued me in about where to
find the documentation for this type of
construct, which is a "heredoc" text entry.  Interestingly,
the other report was also from someone trying to write readable,
block-structured code, and was also classified as bogus.  I guess us
old guys who were around when Pascal was invented just have some weird
ideas about how code should be organized to be "people" friendly.

There is nothing wrong with your alternative except that I can't find
info about the contstruct

echo <

Any, unlikely SUCH a change is done. Ever. :-)

I can't seem to figure out how to edit the submission,
so I can't fix the missing < on
