Well. You are right that *some* TAL attributes are left in place. But it 
seems to depend on the HTML element: At least in 'html', 'head' and 
'title' the TAL attributes disappear. And elements like 'metal:block' 
are moved around. Don't think that's acceptable.

Did that already (see above). But the problems are the same as with 
Composer.
