But isn't the basic template-system used for the default view or any 
other view like the exception one?
Shouldn't they be replace by the template-system?
E.G. The Exception-View "F3::FLOW3::Error::DebugExceptionHandler" is 
hardcoded. Later one you'll need to replace the View with some coporate 
identity for a customer...
So some basic functionality is always needed in FLOW3.
An standalone version could be additional, providing some API for 
external usage....

Could be done like with the cache-system...
