Perhaps a bit of followup is worthwhile...

<dtml-let x="foo"> may syntatically be an attribute setting but in the view of many users, it's an assignment.  I've seen many people write <dtml-let x = "foo"> for readability and then spend
a lot of time trying to figure out why the page won't save. This is what prompted the bug report.

This is the way dtml works and is highly unlikely to change. This mirrors the way sgml tag attributes are written.

<dtml-let xxx="foo" >

<dtml-let xxx = "foo">
