I don't see the point, honestly. It's harder to use and hardly removes any code (the balance is -160 lines, but about 140 of them come from the parser's test suite). Using the functionality only in qtest is fine, but it is damn useful there. If we want to remove the % escaping, let's rewrite the qtests in Python as they probably should have been since the beginning. Paolo
