I didn't understand your point here. The old version had a
strange marker ($|...|$) HTML editors don't understand by default.
The other markers were always between HTML comments (<!-- ... -->), but
they're not Lua (<!--$$ LOOP start='...' test='...' action='...' $$-->).
The new preprocessor is more compatible with XML and translates
the code to a string. There are not new constructors: everything should
be done with pure Lua. Don't you think it's a better way?
