Perhaps either of them are already good enough? A previous effort in that direction is the `snippet-engine` branch in YASnippet's Git repository, which aimed to reimplement YASnippet's core functionality separately from the specific user-visible format of the snippets, such that YASnipet could then be reimplemented on top of snippet-engine (and hopefully other systems like tempo, tempel, skeleton could be reimplemented on top of it as well). AFAIK that branch was on the right track, but the implementer (Jo=E3o) lost motivation at some point. Stefan
