While my gut response for the new end tag is in the "no" column, I do wonder if we can accommodate "non-html" scenarios in a broader (maybe more palatable?) way by assuming that if you want the newline to be respected on one line, you probably want it that way for the whole file. <?php declare(ignore_newline_after_close_tag=false); // defaults to true, i.e existing behavior This would avoid any new syntax rules, but still provide the ability for php-as-template-engine to behave in the user's preferred mode. -Sara
