 I propose that WordPress embedded views, and any HTML, CSS, JS, or any
 other textual output, and static data such as mime-type arrays, be put in
 a framework, to be separated from the logic of the WordPress code-base.

 This would allow several advantages over the current system(s) in place.

 * Shorter code files, with standardised syntax (lowers the bar for front-
 end editors / contributors, as the language files already have. These
 users may not be PHP savvy, allowing code editors to work on code,
 separately to data-structures, moving WordPress towards a more data-
 driven, presentation agnostic code-base.

 * Simplified modification of data and portability of data-structures to
 systems beyond WordPress & Integrations / Migrations to WordPress, as well
 as better sharing with front-end CMS logic and back-end tooling.
