It displays stuff like <dtml-if> bla <dtml-else> foo </dtml-if>
incorrectly, showing both, as far as I know. And it of course doesn't
show anything when you have a <dtml-var>. These are basic problems with
DTML-type solutions, and TAL addresses them.
If dreamweaver breaks TAL tags, then dreamweaver is doing something
wrong. It shouldn't touch them, since it doesn't know what it is.
However, with TAL it is possible to make a WYSIWYG editor that works
without a problem, but with DTM, you can't (unless you make a special
DTML+Zope editor).
