I understand completely what you're getting at already, but PHP is
designed to do what you're asking to do.
I know there are valid reaons for stripped down implementations, but can't
think of too many. And actually, I would consider RTF or PDF to be
languages unto themselves. There's a full syntax to use to get specific
results, and if you're throwing conditionals in there, or variables, it's
hard to see how it's not a language. Maybe not full-featured, but a
language nonetheless.
