support for !json and !code macros

[cmadsen]

couchapp support two "macros" for doing server side includes. See http://guide.couchdb.org/draft/show.html

eg:

function(doc, req) {
  // !json templates.edit
  // !json blog
 // !code vendor/couchapp/path.js
 // !code vendor/couchapp/template.js

It would very convenient if there was support for this

FYI you can also use commonjs

Ok. I did

ddoc.sharedJS = {
    stringzone : exports.myFunc = function(){return 'plankton';}
}

ddoc.lists.mylist = function(head, req) {
    var xxx = require('sharedJS/stringzone').myFunc;
        xxx();

But this only works if I do

ddoc.sharedJS = {
    stringzone : "exports.myFunc = function(){return 'plankton';}"
}

So do I have to format my commonJS stuff as one liners to include them in app.js?

nope you can use loadFiles

This is fine for evaluating JavaScript CommonJS code, but what about if you simply want to access an html template that was loaded using loadFiles? Sort of what !json does.
