[Zope-dev] HTML rendering

	I had a routine in Frontier that took out all unneeded spaces, returns, comments etc. in HTML documents. The only place these were left was in <script> and <pre> tagged text. Is it possible for mere users to tinker with the final steps of the rendering process to make this happen?

	What I'd like to add is an "optimize HTML" attribute that can be added to folders/servers and have it optimize all of the HTML code sent out in this manner. The benefit (in my expierence) is anywhere from 10-20% which means about that much improvement in load speed, less traffic on net links etc. I imagine it would also need to be excluded on <textareas> for the management screens....
