It's fine to be able to set a default filter in each interpreter. I just don't think it can be the default for Mason out of the box. > If users really insist on having the same Mason interpreter to render > different types of contents, maybe the default filter should be a > property of the component? Define it in Base.mc for your HTML > generating component directory .. job done. That would be nice. The problem is that the default filter affects compilation of the component (in particular, it affects how <% %> tags are converted to Perl) so it isn't a simple call you could put in the <%class> section, for example - it would have to be a <%flags>, and currently there is no way to inherit those. But I agree, it's appealing to be able to set the default filter on a per-component basis, just for the components that output HTML. Would just like a better syntax than <%flags> default_filters => ['H'] </%flags> Yuck.
