Ian Boston resolved SLING-2919.
-------------------------------
    Resolution: Won't Fix

While it might be nice, there is limited need for this given the dominance of JSP and Slightly.

> Handlebars.js is a popular scripting language used client side. The markup is simple and straightforward, much like velocity in some ways, but without any of the confusion ove template or MVC. There is a version of Handlebars for java that uses an identical template language and appears to be well supported and has some nice features such as pre-compiling scripts serverside into Javascript functions and modules. (not all that relevant for server side scripting, but interesting none the less).
> I am going to experiment with a Sling Script engine in the whiteboard area to see if its viable to use handlebars java as an alternative to JSP.
