Investigate Htmlbars

[Blacktiger]

htmlbars is a replacement for handlebars being developed for Ember.js. It's virtual dom model should allow for improved performance over stock handlebars in Thorax views. Integration with this new library should probably be considered. Although it is still in beta, Ember.js is already starting to integrate with it.

They're certainly doing some cool stuff but the two systems are fairly incompatible from a user perspective primarily with respect to helpers and concat handling. We do want to look into this at some point but I suspect this will require breaking changes of some form.
