[TYPO3-50-general] Naming of ViewHelpers - ambiguity

Hi Robert,

sorry that I answer that late...

My problem with "tag" is the following:

Currently, the only way to call a ViewHelper/Tag is using a tag-based  
syntax:
<f3:link action="...">My Text</f3:link>

However, there will be an equivalent, shorter syntax for different use- 
cases:
{f3:link("My Text", action="...")}
This syntax is especially helpful when some data which is passed to a  
view helper should be pre-processed.

Currently, I call this syntax "Shorthand Syntax", but I am not yet  
happy with this name.

Do you still feel that "Tag" is the right name for this?

Greets,
Sebastian
