I've used Django a lot in the past, and when I saw Templetor for the
first time, I was pleasantly surprised by how cool it's Python
integration was.
1. We all know how to write Python functions and classes, why learn a
whole new API to write _simple_ filters?
2. Why use un-Pythonic piping when you can simply say
`$urlize('http:/whatever/url')`?
So, while I find Anand's tip a nice way to create a DSL using Python,
I don't think template tags are necessarily going to help you with
writing better templates (more than the tools you've already got in
Python).
