[albatross-users] Macro default args

[Gregory Bond]

By the way:

I'd love to be able to do 
	<al-expand name="box" color="red">Error!!</al-expand>
instead of
	<al-expand name="box"><al-setarg name="color">red</al-setarg>Error!!</al-expand>

(i.e. put macro args in the al-expand tag.)   Again, only useful for small
amounts of argument text, but much neater.  Some hackery in Expand.to_html 
should do it (see below).  This only allows plain text substitutions (no 
nested <al-value> etc), but will still work with the <al-setarg> which is 
better for longer or more complicated macro text.

What do people think?
