This is precisely why TAL was created - to avoid having code blocks.
Code blocks screw with things such as browsers when you use them
outside of the preprocessor. With TAL I know how my template will look
even when it has the TAL code in it. If I tweak the design I don't
need to maintain a copy with TAL and without TAL, I just have one to
work with.

I would suggest using something other than ZPT if you want
functionality like that. There are plenty of options.
