The Yesod method does seem interesting (best explanation I could find of it is at [1]. Perhaps that would be a better plan, although you could look at the encoding syntax as strongly typed strings. If you look at the 'boldheart' example once the <strong>&lt;3</strong> is saved as an "type html" string, it is not re-encoded when placed inside another "type html" string. As for the "yet-another" argument - I know. Convincing developers to switch to a language that is not leaps-and-bounds ahead of their choice language is hard to impossible. The reality is that I'm simply not happy with any of my options and decided it would be an interesting experiment to write my own. I'm not planning on writing any serious applications in it myself -- unless somehow it can pick up a community. The remixing though I find interesting. This is simply an attempt at making something "better" than the other options. Languages get stuck with broken features in order to maintain backwards compatibility. I see this as a way to take the good parts of any languages and turn it into something I would like to use. I'd rather stick with what works.
