That is invalid Python; it has nothing to do with the Stan module, and
everything to do with the programming language we're using.

Besides, I think most people here can agree that it's dangerous to allow
people to mesh logic and presentation the way you can in languages like
PHP or JSP; it results in badly-designed web applications, and it isn't
quite the itch that Nevow was designed to scratch.
