Lets invent a touring complete XML based language that can be converted into Python for fast bytecode compilation.
<if test="var=true">
<print value="var" />
</if>
AND XML DOESN'T FORCE YOU TO INDENT.

We can use XSLT to convert the Python-based XML dialect into an XML dialect that gets translated into Haskell code, thus reaping the benefits of both languages!
