This is great! I see there more features I'd like to use, not only
custom ESCAPErs! I strongly advise you to upload your work to CPAN
as a HTML::Template fork. Those features will certainly benefit a 
wider audience.

I'm going to try to port your ESCAPE abstraction to HT::JIT as that's
really what we use in production.
