It might be just me, but often a simple replacement is sufficient.
However, if users modify templates they quite often mess with whitespaces/newlines which could easily (and unnecessarily) break template modifications.
Of course it would be possible to create every modification as a whitespace-ignore regex, but that seems painful - and doesn't quite make the modifaction readable
It would therefore be nice if simple replacements would internally be processed as whitespace-tolerant regexes.
This is what I did in TMS for vBulletin and I never had a single issue because of that.
