And hey, I'd be +1 on releasing a less-simple template that allowed arbitrary Python expressions (but no '}' characters) instead of just identifiers. But that's another issue -- and my liking it doesn't detract from my liking SIMPLE templates too.

As Barry said elsewhere... even if all it does is to replace '%()s' with '${}' it's still an improvement.
