The idea of a non-DTML-parsed document is a good one, but I don't like this
talk of "hacking" or "removing" DTML documents, methods, etc.  You will
never get acceptance for that.  Just offer the new product type and make
sure it can be used everywhere DTML Documents can be used, probably by
subclassing it.

It would be a nice idea for the MIME type to be settable as a predefined
property.

You should also make sure that these "Non-DTML Documents" can be pulled into
DTML Methods and Documents via <dtml-var> or the equivalent.  It would be
useful to allow users to edit snippets for inclusion in larger DTML
assemblies.
