Arg! No more languages! :'(

Still, maybe a TALES-in-plain-text thing has some merits, but then you want 
defines, a repeats, and you end up with TAL.

*grunt*

still, I suppose:

template="""
p {
   color: %(color)s;
   background-color: %(bgcolor)s;
}
"""
preferences = context.getProperty('preferences',{})
dict = {
  'color':preferences.get('color','gray'),
  'bgcolor':preferences.get('bgcolor'white'),
}
return template % dict

...does the job in the correct fashion...
