Smarty/other templating language

[batkiwi]

It'd be great to have smarty or some other templating language rather than straight PHP for the index. It would have several benefits IMO:
-less possibility of messing things up horribly
-safer for those offering hosting... can just give access to the .tpl file without worrying about command injection!
-cleaner syntax for non-programmers

This has been debated numerous times on the forums and elsewhere and the general consensus is that while Smarty is a fine framework for certain types of projects it is ill-suited to the goals of WordPress.

This looks good! But committing/merging needs to happen on Trac/SVN. Closing this in favor of Trac-51151.
