I think that the templates should be all valid in their own format. so xml templates 
should be xml-valid. a latex template wont be valid with cdata sections but it can include 
{page:title} markers without breaking.

Thats why i also like the that <f3:... and {fe:... are both working. I think nearly all 
possible target formats will allow at least one of the notations without breaking the 
templates.
