Did you see this? Looks like @tobi is working on a proper parser for Liquid.

Oh wow, thats awesome! thanks @tobi!

I had no idea liquid was looking to move to a parser like this one, I'll look forward to seeing how that evolves! especially around how you go about supporting custom blocks, I never could come up with a functioning grammar that could handle the nice {% form %}...{% endform %} (the closing tag name matches the opening tag name), though i'm planning on revisiting it some day.
