Nice job, Brad. I am particularly excited about the comments. Yes, I know about the plugin which provides for comments, but you have to put a set of tags around it...

I haven't yet put the plugin to use but if I understand it correctly, the plugin translates the template on-the-fly and then produces the page meaning that you never see the normal MT tags at any point. This is bad if only because (for debugging or demonstration purposes) it makes it harder for a user to display his/her template for public consumption.

If used in conjunction, would the showtemplates or template plugins show the simpletemplate form or the MT-translated form? If the latter, then nevermind.

...although it might be nice to have an outputTemplateFile attribute that will write out the translated MT template to the file specified as its argument...

Anyway, good work, as always!

I am an idiot... The no_compile attribute does this, does it not? (slaps forehead) REALLY nice job, Brad..]]>
