then don't use { and } as delimiters.

not necessarily. put the stuff in functions in the .js-file and pass
"this" from the on-*-handlers in the html as a parameter to these
functions.


if you really want the syntax you suggested below, write a simple
prefilter that replaces the "`*`" (or whatever) inside literal-tags by
"{/literal}*{literal}".

while you're at it, you could even go a little further and look for
{javascript}...{/javascript} in your template, replace it with
{literal}...{/literal} and only do the backticks-replacement in the
{javascript}-blocks.

calling the block {literal} and doing *anything* modifying it's
contents is really misleading, IMHO.
